The BBU International Sustainability Student Conference provided an excellent opportunity to achieve all these within the framework of one conference!
The conference aims to bring together those students and fellow researchers interested in sustainability who would like to present new research, exchange information, and discuss current issues.
As a responsible University and Champion of PRME (Principles for Responsible Management Education) and also a member of the European School of Sustainability Science and Research (ESSSR network) Budapest Business School’s Centre of Excellence for Sustainability Impacts in Business and Society (CESIBUS) cordially invite all bachelor, master, and PhD students to conduct independent research related to Sustainable Development Goals of the UN.

A brief description of the wilderness or outdoors programs that follow Leave No Trace principles:
We are organizing the night tour for the sixth time, during which we visit the Buda Mountains as usual. On October 3, 2023, we will discover together the beauties of the autumn forest, nature's nocturnal self.
With the help of tour guides, this time wrapped in the colors of autumn, we leave the city behind, and after admiring the sunset, we witness how the night takes over the day. We dive into the forest, where silence and darkness await. We can observe all of this from a perspective that we have perhaps never seen before.
