The Climate-KIC collaboration office at Lund University (climate-KIC@lu) works with researchers, students and external organisations to initiate activities and develop projects for climate mitigation and adaptation. By knowledge sharing, facilitating networking opportunities, and organising relevant activities, the office fosters collaboration and mobilises actors in the green transition.
One of its key initiatives is the annual Climathon. In 2024 over 120 people participated in Climathon and tackled climate challenges from partner organisations such as Tetra Pak, Alfa Laval, Kraftringen, Lund Municipality, and Malmö City. The office also supports Lund University’s involvement in Viable Cities and is currently conducting a pre-study on battery recycling.
Since joining Climate-KIC in 2016, Lund University’s activities have developed, adapting to changes in Climate-KIC’s funding and support structures.
