AIMday Sustainable Future Dalarna
23 october 2024
A group of academic researchers from Dalarna University and representatives from your organisation/company discussing your particular question during one hour:
That´s an AIMday workshop!
AIMday Sustainable future – the road to new solutions
AIMday gives companies and organisations the opportunity to meet with academic researchers, to initiate the conversation and share knowledge and experience kring specific challenges. The idea is simply that the researchers can add new, in-depth knowledge, new perspecitves and ideas that can aid in solving the problem or finding new routes to examine. Through these workshops we also create favorable settings for continued dialogue and cooperation.
This will be Dalarna Universitys second AIMday with the theme Sustainable Future. Last years AIMday lead to interesting discussions and input to the companies and organisaitons that had submitted their questions, as well as initiating to research collaborations!
The organisations submits their question or query directly to our researchers through this AIMday page.
Sustainable future
Dalarna University has decided to focus om the theme Sustainable Future due to the wide spectrum of questions that are covered – questions and areas of outmost importance for us all.
The questions could for example be about:
Environmental sustainability: reduced carbon dioxide emissions, renewable energy, battery storage, transport.
Social sustainability: social justice, equality in workplaces, education and labor market development.
Economic sustainability: economic systems that promote long-term growth and stability, innovation and entrepreneurship.
Technological sustainability: the use of digitization and artificial intelligence to solve sustainability challenges, as well as the development of environmentally friendly technologies.
Health and well-being: workplace health and the promotion of healthy lifestyles.
This also reflects a strategic investment from Region Dalarna to promote and strengthen our joint work in this area, and fits well into the university’s research areas.
We welcome all questions that fit within the theme.
Questions = Workshops
The submitted questions form the cornerstone of AIMday – questions from businesses and other organizations form the heart of the discussions. Society’s challenges, formulated in one or more questions, set the agenda for workshops where researchers and organizations meet.
In short – submit the question you’d like to discuss with an expert by filling out the form at the bottom of the “Questioner – info and registration” page, and we’ll work to match you with a number of experts who can bounce ideas off their specific knowledge area. This leads to exciting interdisciplinary discussions and paths towards solutions.
We welcome questions from all external actors, businesses, public activities and civil society.
