The
International
Network
for
Sustainable
Nano
(N4SNano)
is
proud
to
announc that
registration
for
the
Global
Summit
2022
on
Nanotechnology
for
a Healthier
and
Sustainable
Future
is
now
open!
This
inaugural
event
will
be
held
at
the
University
of
Waterloo
on
August 10–11
2022
(EST),
with
the
satellite
events
at
the
University
of
Sydney
on August
11–12
2022
(AEST).
Thanks
to
the
international
and
hybrid
model
of this
event,
we
hope
you
are
able
to
join
us
from
wherever
you
may
be
in the world!
The
2022
Global
Summit
is
focused
on
UN
SDG#3
Good
Health
and
Well-being.
It is
a
small
but
important
step
towards
achieving
the
larger
ambitious vision of
creating
a
world
free
of
hunger,
poverty,
and
disease
where
all
life
can thrive.
The
Global
Summit
will
raise
awareness
and
support
capacity building for
the
UN
SDGs
and
their
related
thematic
issues.
Nanotechnology
is
a powerful
tool
that
can
be
utilized
to
create
a
sustainable,
healthy,
and prosperous
future.
Through
this
Global
Summit
we
hope
all
attendees
will appreciate
the
opportunities
that
nanotechnology
can
provide
along
with understanding
its
limitations
so
that
they
can
be
addressed.
The
Global Summit
will
bring
together
people
from
all
over
the
world
who
are
interested in
improving
global
health
in
terms
of
nanotechnology,
sustainability, digital
health,
and
equity,
diversity
&
inclusion
(ED&I).
