Join us for the Research to Action Workshop

22 April 2025

At the Global Conversations on Sustainable Health, experts from Uganda and Sweden tackled a crucial question: How can we nourish ourselves without harming the planet?

This seminar will explore the intersection of food systems, nutrition, and environmental sustainability, emphasizing the urgent need to protect biodiversity and global health. With food systems driving habitat loss and wildlife population declines, sustainable change is crucial.

Experts from Uganda, Sweden, and beyond will discuss innovative interventions, respectful maternity care, and how collaborations between UN agencies, researchers, hospital managers, and policymakers can enhance the quality of care during childbirth and drive sustainable improvements.

The President of Karolinska Institutet, Annika Östman Wernerson, is visiting Makerere University in November 2024.
