Católica promotes Cycle of Conferences on the SDGs

Within the scope of fulfilling the Sustainable Development Agenda, the Universidade Católica Portuguesa is launching a Cycle of Conferences on the Sustainable Development Goals, which will take place throughout the year 2023, focusing on the Environmental, Social and Economic dimensions.

"The Sustainable Development Goals: what are they and why are they relevant?" is the first session of this set of conferences. The event takes place on March 23, at 5 pm, in auditorium 511 at the headquarters of the University, in Lisbon, and will be broadcast live.

Filipa Pires de Almeida, professor at the Católica Lisbon School of Business & Economics and Deputy Director of the Center for Responsible Business and Leadership, Mónica Dias from the Institute for Political Studies, and Sofia Monteiro, a student at the Lisbon School- Faculty of Law, make up the panel of speakers.

This initiative is part of the objectives of the UCP Sustainability Agenda (2021-2025) and is aimed at the entire community of the four campuses of Católica, as well as alumni, local residents, and community organizations.
