Sustainability in the Corona Crisis – Learning from the Crisis for Sustainable Development<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a result of the Corona pandemic, we are experiencing massive restrictions in everyday life – with corresponding effects also on existing climate and environmental goals. The current debate is whether and how the Covid 19 crisis is impeding or promoting climate-friendly economic transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DBU is funding a number of projects that address the impact of the Corona Crisis and its consequences for achieving environmental and climate goals and corresponding approaches to solving the problem. The goal of this funding initiative is to look at the situation in the aftermath of the pandemic from different scientific perspectives. The systemic, inter- and transdisciplinary studies will also contribute, among other things, to understanding human behavior and the psychological effects that cause the radical changes. It also analyzes how current programs of measures, for example to stimulate the economy, would have to look in order to be able to support a sustainable transformation. The results of the projects should provide information on how the resilience of society to future socio-ecological crises can be strengthened and how and which behavioral changes and measures can promote the “great ecological transformation”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
