The award aims to promote innovative and interdisciplinary research on sustainable development by early career researchers at the University.
Lina Lefstad's research explores how CCS can help limit climate change from a global justice perspective. While the process has the potential to reduce emissions, a key question is: who benefits? The countries best placed to use CCS are those with a well-developed fossil fuel industry – raising the fundamental question of whether the 'polluters' should now benefit from solving the problem.

That means a lot to me, especially as I am entering the last year of my PhD, and I want to send a big thank you to them as well as to my team of supervisors who support me on the way. Many many congratulations to postdcotoral researcher Jesica López who won the award!, says Lina Lefstad, PhD student at LUCSUS.
Lina will present her research at the awards ceremony during Lund Sustainability Week on 7th May.
