Experience Day Science for Sustainable Societies
Are you interested in studying Science for Sustainable Societies and curious about what the programme is really like? Join us for our Experience Day, a fun and interactive day that gives you a complete overview of the programme. You will attend interactive lectures on both the natural and social sciences, all focused on environmental issues. You will also take part in a stakeholder debate that shows how these fields connect, and you’ll have the chance to talk with some of our current students. What to expect We kick off with a short introduction to the programme, followed by a lecture from Thijs Bosker on land sharing and its effects on biodiversity. Next, Jelle Buijs will explain why stakeholder involvement is essential for the transitions needed to build a more sustainable future. Our teacher Merlijn will then tell you about biodiversity loss in the Philippines and the conservation methods used to protect an endangered species. The day concludes with an integrated stakeholder debate on the return of the wolf in the Netherlands. The debate brings together insights from ecology, anthropology, and the social sciences, offering a broader perspective on how to tackle environmental challenges.
