Eco-summit to show 'what we want is possible'

Under the theme, ‘What we want is possible’, the summit is also a call for action to recruit and train a new generation of student scientists who are ready to provide solutions to the challenges of the environment. Planned for 1 to 4 July, the summit’s goal is to bring global experts, researchers and practitioners together to discuss innovative solutions and strategies to build climate change resilience in energy, water, and food systems.

This was according to FAMU School of Environment dean, Dr Victor Ibeanusi.

Speaking at the press launch in Durban in February, Ibeanusi said the solution to these problems was to gather like-minded professionals and drive a plan to secure the future.
