Scotland at the Heart of Meeting Global Challenges
Feb 8, 2023

Summary There are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.

On Wednesday 8 February in the Scottish Parliament, The Physiological Society is collaborating with the Royal Society of Edinburgh to discuss how Scotland’s research environment will be crucial in meeting the SDGs. Physiology, as the science of life, will be a key part in the response to the targets posed by the SDGs.

This event will bring together Scottish researchers and policymakers from throughout the country, to celebrate the contribution that Scotland has made to meeting the SDGs and outline the major challenges and opportunities yet to be addressed.
