Spring in Rome is just around the corner. The sun is out, trees are budding, and birds are singing. No better time to think about our precious natural environment and what we can all do to help preserve it. The 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals set the ambitious target of achieving a sustainable and fair future for the world by the year 2030. They pursue environmental and social justice aims in tandem, with the rationale that neither can be achieved in the absence of the other, and cover a range of areas from to clean oceans and the protection of biodiversity on land to gender equality, sustainable industrialization and decent work. Here on the Endless Engagement page, we continue to feature articles about each of the goals, in connection with research and teaching at Luiss.

We also want to bring you all the latest news about events at Luiss, especially those which might interest our international student community. Check back here to find out about the latest editions in our Diaspora Webinar Series, which explores the multiple ways that diaspora communities benefit their home and host societies. We’ll also be bringing you all the information about new courses and degree programs, upcoming webinars, open days and other events for students and alumni. Finally, this year we want everyone to get to know our award-winning sports programs at Luiss, so we’ll also be bringing you all the news about events going on at Luiss connected with our athletic department—stay tuned for news fun thing to come!
