The 17 Sustainable D evelopment Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations are an important statement o f an international consensus on development priorities to address the most pressing global challenges of our time and create a more sustainable futu re. The BFSS curriculum focuses on the Sustainable Development Goals ident ified as a priority by the government of Barbados and the Small Island Dev eloping States (SIDS). Students registered in the BFSS learn about the sci ence of sustainability and how it integrates the three pillars of sustaina bility – environmental\, social and economic –\, and apply this knowledge to a real-life question by conducting an applied\, field-based\, research project.\n\nFind out more: /bfss/mission\n\nWHERE: Bu rnside 426\n DTSTART:20230213T210000Z DTEND:20230213T230000Z LOCATION:Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Barbados Field Study Semester: Information Session URL:/science/channels/event/barbados-field-study-semes ter-information-session-344909 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
