Eager to listen to the latest research and practice on sustainable resources and mobility? Want to learn about new trends in European research and education?
Then welcome to the virtual Aurora Biannual 2022 "Sustainable Resources and Mobility in Europe" hosted by the University of Duisburg-Essen.
You can dial in to participate in one or several of the following events:

- A keynote on clean water
- An educational workshop on social agency

Our Aurora Biannuals are gathering places for students, researchers, staff, academic administrators and stakeholders who are deeply committed to social impact, and each one of them has a history of engagement with their own communities.
The overall vision of the Aurora universities is to use academic excellence to influence societal change. By maximising the societal impact of our research and education, we encourage diversity and inclusion. The Aurora community also drives innovation in teaching and learning through the engagement of our students.
Join us at the Biannual and help us move towards building an even stronger Aurora community!
