Konferencja UNIC w Malmö – o przyszłości miast poprzemysłowych i SDG

The first UNIC thematic conference "Urban Resilience, Sustainability and the Future of Inclusive Post-Industrial Societies" will be held on 7-9 May 2025 at Malmö University. The event focuses on two blocks of issues: sustainable development and green cities, and urban resilience and smart cities. The University of Lodz will be represented by a large group of researchers.

The UNIC conference is a response to the accelerating urbanisation and the need for cities to implement the postulates related to sustainable development. The event will bring together not only people dealing with the subject academically, but also practitioners and stakeholders representing city institutions.
