Sustainability Mindset Conference 2025: Innovative Pedagogies for developing a Sustainability Mindset
July 29, 2025. The Station, Frederiksberg, Copenhagen
Welcome to the Conference! #2ndSustainabilityMindsetConference
Dear colleague,
We are thrilled to welcome you to the Sustainability Mindset Conference 2025, hosted in the heart of Copenhagen at The Station—a dynamic student innovation hub repurposed from the former Frederiksberg police station and revitalized by Copenhagen Business School (CBS).
Throughout the day, we will explore transformative pedagogies and tools that foster a sustainability mindset in education, leadership, and business. We look forward to your presence and participation in this global dialogue for a better future. Thank you for joining us as we co-create a flourishing future grounded in sustainable values and education.
Should you need any assistance during the conference, the Organizing Team (wearing special name tags) will be happy to help.

Confirmation and Lunch Arrangements
***Please click on this LINK to confirm your attendance!***
Lunch: The Station offers sandwiches but only by pre-ordering them. They offer vegetarian, non-vegetarian, and gluten free options (no specific details available but you can request special preferences). The cost is DKK 99 and they are only available if pre-ordered in this form by July 21. If you preorder, they will be ready for you at lunch break in the cafeteria, where you will pay and also get your beverage. Please note that The Station will not be able to offer sandwiches that were not pre-ordered (a waste minimization policy).
Alternatively, we have identified two lovely cafes at a 3 min walk (they don’t require pre-orders).
