Expanding the Discourse on Sustainability: Existential Sustainability

In recent years, society has seen a growing need to broaden the conversation around sustainability beyond its traditional pillars of social, environmental, and economic concerns. There's a call to include the existential dimensions of human life. In autumn 2023, the Agenda 2030 Graduate School offered a doctoral course on Existential Sustainability. The course concluded with a student conference f

Existential Sustainability and The Energy Transition

This paper is an attempt to link the concept of Existential Sustainability to research within the field of electrical power systems modelling. This is specifically done in the context of electrification and the energy transition. In extension, this implies a connection between the fields of humanities and technology. Author: Alice JanssonThis paper is an attempt to link the concept of Existential

Acknowledging Existential Sustainability in Social Work

This is an explorative and, at times, tentative text on the potential meanings and uses of the concept Existential Sustainability in social work and social work research. The overall argument is that to create a positive change in the lives of people in general, service users more specifically, and to sustain such change over time, it is necessary to acknowledge an existential dimension and existe

Simple steps to sustainable water: How treated wastewater can meet drinking standards

As extreme weather, droughts and water scarcity become more common, we need more ways to ensure access to clean water. New research by PhD student Maria Takman shows how wastewater in Kivik has been treated to near drinking water quality. “I was surprised that we achieved such high quality with a relatively simple and short treatment process. This type of wastewater reuse could become an important

Vulnerability and care – keys to an existential sustainable society?

Adolescence is a phase of life when existential loneliness— an experience related to suffering— may occur for the first time. During adolescence thoughts about meaning and identity are central for the young person. In this short paper, I reason about how the understanding of existential loneliness during adolescence (which is the topic of my PhD-project) can be related to central concepts in the u

Renat avloppsvatten kan uppnå dricksvattenkvalitet

I takt med att extremväder, torka och vattenbrist blir allt vanligare behöver vi fler sätt att säkra tillgången till rent vatten. Ny forskning av disputerande Maria Takman visar hur avloppsvatten i Kivik renades till nära dricksvattenkvalitet. - Jag blev förvånad över att vi nådde så hög kvalitet med en relativt enkel och kort reningsprocess. Det här sättet att återanvända avloppsvatten kan bli en

Challenging capitalism: Rethinking sustainability in the age of environmental despair

This essay explores how capitalism and techno-optimism hinder effective climate action. Drawing on James Gustave Speth's insights, it argues for the need for existential sustainability that fosters compassion, generosity, and care. It suggests seeking alternatives beyond economic growth and technological solutions to create a truly sustainable future. Author: Gubb Marit Stigson“I used to think the

Enduring vulnerability: Sexual violence risks for young migrants in Sweden

Young migrants are especially vulnerable to sexual violence. A new doctoral thesis shows that migrants are vulnerable even after they arrive in Sweden.  "We may think they are safe here, but there are structural problems. Lack of access to health and social services increases the vulnerability of young migrants," says Tanya Andersson Nystedt, a doctoral student at Lund University. Tanya Andersson

Unga migranter särskilt utsatta för sexuellt våld

Unga migranter är särskilt utsatta för sexuellt våld. En ny doktorsavhandling visar att migranterna är utsatta även efter ankomsten till Sverige. – Vi tror kanske att de är säkra här, men det finns strukturella problem. Bristande tillgång till hälsovård och sociala tjänster förvärrar de unga migranternas sårbarhet, säger disputerande Tanya Andersson Nystedt vid Lunds universitet. Tanya Andersson N

Stubbendorffs index banar väg för hållbara kostråd

The Planetary Health Diet. Så kallas den kostrekommendation som ska få oss friska och ge mat på bordet till en framtida världsbefolkning om 10 miljarder. Men minskar den stroke, förtida död och utsläpp av växthusgaser? Agenda 2030-doktoranden Anna Stubbendorff har jämfört olika kostindex för att underlätta den analysen. Hennes eget index presterade bäst och nu publiceras forskningsresultaten i väl
