Studying sustainability while sailing over the Pacific in summer 2022
SDG200: Ocean, climate, society is a completely new 30 ECTS interdisciplinary sustainability course at the UiB. The course will be run for the first time from May to August 2022 on board the sailing ship Statsraad Lehmkuhl, while the ship sails across the Pacific from Valparaíso in Chile to Palau.

This course will employ the SDGs as a platform from which to gain a comprehensive understanding of planetary sustainability. This includes building necessary skills for the transformative interdisciplinary cooperation needed if humanity is to continue to thrive for generations to come, while avoiding large-scale abrupt or irreversible environmental change. The students participating on SDG200 will live and study on board and become part of the crew, dividing their time between sailing the ship and studying, eating and resting.
We invite particularly students interested in participating in SDG200 to learn about the course and discuss our plans with us. As a participant in our event, you will be able to contribute to the development of the course!
This event is relevant for all the Sustainable Development Goals.
