ERSCP-EMSU congres

‘Knowledge Collaboration & Learning for Sustainable Innovation’ can be illustrated by the example of the traditional light bulb. To put an end to the traditional light bulb and its environmental impact and to change the way it has been used in society for so long not only requires new sustainable innovations, but also the collaboration of a range of stakeholders and actors. This should lead to increasing and sharing knowledge regarding sustainable innovation and learning by the stakeholders and actors involved. New innovations must lead to sustainable consumption and production through attractive products and services that are accepted by society and adopted by end-users, both in developing and developed countries. The conference will take place simultaneously in Delft in the Netherlands and in Cape Town, South Africa.

ABOUT ERSCP & EMSU
The European Roundtable on Sustainable Consumption and Production is a non-profit forum that provides a platform to stimulate, develop and disseminate new initiatives aimed at fostering the implementation of concepts involving sustainable consumption and production and approaches within local and regional sustainable development initiatives.
Environmental Management for Sustainable Universities has evolved into a series of international conferences that explore the role of universities in creating new knowledge and attitudes to meet today’s environmental challenges. EMSU promotes a two way exchange of knowledge between universities and society.
