The APRU Sustainable Cities and Landscapes brings researchers and scholars together from across the Pacific Rim to engage in cross-cultural conversations around climate justice, sustainable, and social equity. Tune in to our biweekly webinar sessions this fall to learn how cities around the world are working towards achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals in their own contexts.

Stay tuned and more updates will be provided soon.

This webinar series is led by the APRU Sustainable Cities & Landscapes Program based at University of Oregon alongside The University of Auckland, University of Hawai’i at Mānoa and Arizona State University plus five more partnering universities.
