Entrepreneurship College #8 - SDG 13 Climate Action

De Tropen café-restaurant is gevestigd in het Koninklijk Instituut voor de Tropen aan de rand van het Oosterpark.

Kom zien, horen, ruiken en vooral proeven!

De Tropen

Every second Thursday of the month, we organize lectures around the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. Our guest speakers are academic experts and entrepreneurs working in the field of the SDGs. They discuss root causes, challenges, relevant theories and important stakeholders. But foremost, they talk about the role of innovation and entrepreneurship, if we want to reach the goals by 2030.
So join us, go back to school and immerse yourself in knowledge for sustainability!
