From report to strategy – where does Hamburg stand in terms of sustainability?

On 19 September, the Hamburg Sustainability Forum and the Hamburg Future Council invite you to a discussion evening on the sustainable future of Hamburg in the Saalhaus of the Patriotische Gesellschaft. Dr Anke Butscher, managing partner of corsus, will moderate the event entitled ‘From report to strategy – where does Hamburg stand in terms of sustainability?’.

Priscilla Owosekun-Wilm from the FHH’s Sustainability Unit will provide an introductory overview of the implementation of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals in Hamburg. Afterwards, Prof. Dr Laura-Marie Edinger-Schons (Chief Sustainability Officer, University of Hamburg), Hamburg’s Senator for Finance Dr Andreas Dressel, Helena Peltonen-Gassmann (Spokesperson of the Coordination Group of the Hamburg Future Council) and Dr Kai Hünemörder (Head of ZEWU at the Chamber of Skilled Crafts and Spokesperson for the Climate Working Group, Hamburg Sustainability Forum) will discuss the current status and future of sustainability in Hamburg under the direction of Anke Butscher. The discussion will focus on the progress and challenges of the City of Hamburg’s current sustainability efforts. With the Voluntary Local Review (VLR) 2023, the city has published its first sustainability report. In the future, the focus will be on identifying important transformation paths, securing funding for a sustainability transformation and structurally anchoring cooperation between the authorities. Important topics include the involvement of civil society and science in the process – from the development of a sustainability strategy to systematic embedding. The audience will have the opportunity to ask questions. Afterwards, an informal get-together with snacks and drinks is planned until around 7 pm.
