The Centro Latinoamericano Suizo (CLS-HSG) is inviting to the first Colombian Swiss Conference on «Water and Light: Managing Strategies to Scale Up Sustainable and Environmental Projects in Colombia»
With the support of the Swiss State Secretariat for Education and Research, the conference will bring together scholars, researchers, and entrepreneurs from Colombia and Switzerland. They will explore new ways of taking sustainable social and environmental projects to the next level, so that these can leave their niche and tap into mass markets. What impact does a project like «Un Litro De Luz/A Liter of Light» have on communities, culture, the environment and the economy? What new technologies will change the supply of drinkable water? These and other questions will be at the core of our conference.
The Conference is free and open to the public. Please register by e-mail and indicate on what days you would like to join the conference: cls-hsg@unisg.ch.
