The UN office of Sustainable Development in Korea on the 6-8th of March organized an Expert Consultation on Building Knowledge and Capacity for Sustainable Development in post Rio+20 Era, together with partner institutions. I had the pleasure to attend and to give a number of speeches on:

  • Stakeholder engagement in knowledge sharing and capacity building for sustainable development: experiences and lessons learned 
  • Growth of SD knowledge and trends in its dissemination-- are knowledge  networks competing or complementing? and,
  • Knowledge and capacity needs for accelerating transition towards sustainability including green economy
