Urban trees and forests contribute to making cities socio-economically and environmentally more sustainable. This is a transdisciplinary field where the two platforms SLU Urban Futures and Future Forests meet and collaborate to identify knowledge gaps and new research questions.
SLU Global and SLU’s four Future Platforms promote scientific climate conversations at SLU. There are webinars and seminars open for all and some events for SLU staff only. Check out upcoming climate conversations at SLU and some relevant external events below.
