In an era where sustainability is at the forefront of global concerns, advancing our understanding of management theories for sustainability is crucial. GRONEN is thrilled to announce an upcoming PhD course, hosted by the prestigious Center for Sustainable Logistics and Supply Chains at KLU Hamburg. The course offers a unique chance for aspiring researchers and academics to delve deep into cutting-edge sustainability management theories.

Led by renowned Professor Joern Hoppmann from the University of Oldenburg, this intensive workshop is organized by Johannes Meuer, Franziska Lauenstein, and Felipe de Lima from KLU. The course will provide participants with essential tools for conducting theory-driven research in sustainability management, bridging the gap between academic insight and real-world application to empower a new generation of sustainability leaders. The course will span three full days on November 19, November 26, and December 3, 2024, from 9 AM to 5 PM each day. Participants will receive a certificate of attendance detailing equivalent ECTS points.
Due to high demand, registration for this year has already been closed. However, we are pleased to share that the course will be offered again next year for those who wish to develop and publish innovative research in this critical field.
We look forward to seeing you there! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at Felipe.Lima@klu.org Franziska.Lauenstein@klu.org joern.hoppmann@uni-oldenburg.de or Johannes.Meuer@klu.org
