University of Liechtenstein > Liechtenstein Congress 2012

The global economy is transforming fast, from short-term thinking and a systemic reliance on non-renewable resources, to building an innovative, just, sustainable and prosperous future, manifested in sustainable assets, healthy communities and social equity.

Since 2008 The Liechtenstein Congress provides an international platform for practical research and informed practice in Sustainable Development and Responsible Investing, guided by effective policy and enlightened by a deep sense of responsibility. This year we will present and discuss a) the role of foundations in the larger frame of financial institutions and their responsible investment paths, b) economically viable urban and landscape systems and buildings designed for a small ecological footprint, and c) sustainability oriented business models and process systems.
