Webinar: Fit4Micro Tech-development and Sustainability

Fit4Micro Tech-development and Sustainability:

1) LCA for better environmental system performance &

2) Making tech-development bridging invisible gender gaps

Join us for an engaging webinar exploring the intersection of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and gender perspectives in technology development. Drawing on practical experience from work in these two distinct yet interconnected areas, the session will highlight how integrating broader social perspectives can strengthen technological innovation and sustainability assessments.

The webinar is organised in two complementary parts. Participants are encouraged to attend the full session, but the programme is designed with flexibility in mind, allowing you to easily join or leave halfway depending on your schedule.

Friday, 10 April 2026 | 1:00 – 2:30 pm CEST

There will be time for Q&A and discussion after each presentation.

In this webinar you will meet project partners:

Sara Bjørn Aaen, Associate professor with the Danish Center for Environmental Assessment at Aalborg university. She specializes in social and gendered impacts in technology and planning projects.

Søren Løkke, Associate professor with the Life Cycle Sustainability Group at Aalborg university. He specializes in Life Cycle impacts in technology and planning projects.
