Magallanes World Study Tour 3.0: Discover Urban Nature: Step into a Sustainable Future

5th November to 4th December
Magallanes World Study Tour is a series of virtual webinars that will take you on a world tour of sustainable universities from across the globe. You will hear from a range of experts from around the world on what they are doing to envision a future where urban living harmonizes with nature.

Magallanes World Study Tour (MWST) 3.0 aims to explore sustainable urban design that promotes environmental health, economic viability, and social equity. 

 The primary goals of such cities include reducing environmental footprint, enhancing the quality of life for residents, and ensuring that future generations can thrive. Join us in this excited exploration! 

 The virtual study tours will be featured on Zoom. Let’s learn from global examples, engage with experts, and envision a future where urban living harmonizes with nature.

 How has this developed over the last two years:

The virtual “Magallanes World Study Tour” (MWST), originally inspired by Ferdinand Magellan’s historic world trip’s journey. MWST 1.0 that we organised in 2021 focused on the culture, traditions, and languages of eight destinations, while MWST 2.0 showcased UNESCO World Heritage sites including both tangible and intangible heritages from 6 countries.
