Johan Rockström, Gunhild Stordalen and Christer Fuglesang are among the headline speakers – and so is Anna Stubbendorff, an Agenda 2030 PhD student specialising in sustainable diets. Ahead of the Key Symposium, “Planetary Health – connect the dots. What saves the planet saves our health”, we asked her three quick questions about her research, her message, and what she hopes the event will achieve.

For hundreds of years, people have made a living from livestock herding in rural Kenya. Today, their traditional way of life is increasingly burdened by the effects of climate change and population growth. In his doctoral thesis, Billy Jones examines why development aid projects in the region often fail – and how sustainable progress could instead be achieved with the help of local actors. Thirtee

Production for the textile and fashion industry can, for many countries, represent a first step out of poverty. But what does this mean for those who work in the sector, and what happens when even poorer countries begin to compete by paying even lower wages for the seamstresses in the factories? Linn Ternsjö has studied the clothing manufacturing industry in Mauritius from a sustainability perspec

How can life-saving HIV treatments remain reliable when global aid is uncertain? What happens when animals are reduced to “carbon emissions” in sustainability debates? And how can urban forests be made safe at night without flooding them with artificial light, disturbing local wildlife? These are just some of the questions raised in Through the Kaleidoscope of Sustainability, an innovative new ant

That eating plenty of vegetables, wholegrains and legumes is beneficial for health is well known. More surprising, however, is that people who eat in a environmentally-friendly way also display nutritional values that are better than researchers had expected. This is shown in a new study by Anna Stubbendorff at the Agenda 2030 Graduate School. The EAT–Lancet diet is a global dietary guideline deve

Three questions for Juanita Francis, who successfully defended her thesis in Pure and Applied Biochemistry at Lund University's Faculty of Engineering (LTH). What inspired you to pursue this research topic, and how has your understanding of it evolved throughout your PhD journey?Well, I can definitely say it’s not because I like spiders! But what they can do, efficiently producing high-performance

Climate change is damaging public health and is also leading to premature deaths. At the same time, the healthcare sector itself is responsible for significant emissions. Studies of intensive care and surgical care in Sweden show that over 60 per cent of the climate impact in intensive care is driven by the growing volume of single-use products, according to research by Linn Hemberg at Lund Univer

In the 1960s, Europe’s largest steel plant was built in Taranto, Italy. While transforming the local economy, it generated pollution that has been linked to illness and premature death among residents. In his doctoral thesis, Carlo Nicoli Aldini shows how law has both contributed to the crisis and been used as an instrument to seek justice by the local population. Carlo Nicoli Aldini recently comp

Most patients with mycosis fungoides, a rare form of lymphoma, live for years with a relatively mild disease. But in some cases it develops into a more serious condition. Angelica Johansson has identified biological changes that may help explain why the disease progresses in about a quarter of patients. Her work also shows that patients report unexpectedly high quality despite living with a chroni

Walking trails in the forest are often unnecessarily well-lit, according to a new study at Lund University. Softer, warmer lighting works just as well for people as today’s bright, white lighting, whilst causing less disturbance to nocturnal animals. Being able to spend time in woodland areas close to towns and cities provides opportunities for psychological recovery, experiencing nature and recre
