Konferenser och symposier Hållbar utveckling: Studenter leder vägen för universiteten i sin roll att informera samhället

ThirdTask is a project in which we try to bring academic discussions about crucial issues for society to the wider public. In this series of videos, we present conversations between students and teachers about how we can make the societal transition needed to limit and adapt to the global change and especially the climate crisis. Digestible for everybody, educative even for the experts.

The name comes from the 1977 Swedish Higher Education Act, where it was stated that the universities should, apart from research and education, also perform the third task (tredje uppgiften): to develop ours, with the help of our teachers' knowledge and research, communication with politicians, business, social and old media. To encourage students from different disciplines to share knowledge and stimulate conversations with friends and family about what they can do to safeguard the conditions for future lives.
