At the same time\, for many of us working in sustainability\, hope is not always easy to hold onto. We’re regularly c onfronted with scientific facts\, organisational barriers and political re alities that can challenge our sense of hope.\nThe Auckland University of Technology and the Sustainability University warmly invite you to an in teractive (online) dialogue on the role of hope in sustainability work.  We’ll share key insights from 35 in-depth interviews with sustainabili ty leaders across New Zealand\, exploring how they experience hope - and how they use it in their work.\nWe’re excited to not only present our f indings\, but also to hear your reflections: What role does hope play in your own sustainability journey and work?\nLanguage: English\nAn exclusi ve\, free opportunity\nLive\, online\, and interactive.\n\nProgram\n\n Introduction by Carola Wijdoogen\n Presentation of research by Professor Marjo Lips-Wiersma and Dr Peter Skilling\n Explorative dialogue\n What' s next (and closing remarks)\n\nIntroduction by Carola Wijdoogen Carola has been co-director of the number 5 foundation since 2022\, where she sup ports organisations and professionals in driving sustainable transitions t hrough a human-centred\, systemic\, and values-driven approach.
