Speakers:

With the theme “Daylight Matters – Turning Knowledge into Change”, this year’s DLA Annual Conference aims to explore how scientific knowledge about daylight can be translated into meaningful action.

Together, participants will identify key messages, target audiences, and effective communication activities to address knowledge-action gaps. Where is there a lack of evidence? Where do we already have sufficient knowledge, but it fails to reach the right audiences or drive change? Join us in developing strategies for integrating daylight into practices that benefit humans and nature. The role of transdisciplinary research in bridging disciplines and involving stakeholders will remain a central theme. 

The conference will take place on 22-23 May 2025 at the Institute for Advanced Study of the Technical University of Munich (TUM-IAS) and will also be co-hosted by TUM.
