This November, we welcome Uppsala's high school students, teachers and a selection of Sweden's leading experts to Kunskap för livet 2.0: A unique meeting where we together head for a sustainable lifestyle. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE EVENT IS FULLY BOOKED!
Generation Z is currently packing their bags for their journey into the great unknown. But growing up in our time is no easy feat. Repeated reports show that Sweden's young people struggle with - among other things - stress, sedentary lifestyles and insufficient sleep. BRIS notes that teenagers' faith in the future is being replaced by worry and hopelessness. But must it be this way? Absolutely not. The global survey World Happiness Report stated in the spring of 2025 that Swedes are the fourth happiest people in the world.
So it's high time to give our children and young people the tools to make the right choices in everyday life. That's why Uppsala University invited to Kunskap För Livet in 2024. A meeting place for high school students, teachers and a selection of the country's leading experts to jointly chart the course for a sustainable lifestyle. After a few hours, all 1,550 seats in the university Grand Auditorium were booked. Once there, both young people and adults gave their thumbs up for a "fantastic experience filled with hope and faith in the future."

In parallel, we know that sleep, mental health, social media and all other challenges we focus on require more than one morning to handle. That is why we are returning to Uppsala University Auditorium on Monday, November 24th for Kunskap för livet 2.0. Not least with the help of the energy boost we received when meeting all the inspiring young people, dedicated teachers and incredible experts who so generously shared their knowledge. Together you all show that it is entirely possible to make a positive difference.
Our vision is clear. We want to give all the young people on site the tools to break the habits they feel better without. The fact that 8 out of 10 young people in the premiere round stated that they will have practical benefit from everything they learned shows that we are on the right track. And now we are raising the bar even further: At Kunskap för livet 2.0, we are aiming for 100 percent. Together we can do it.
Of course, it is completely free. Register now for a unique meeting place for you and your classmates. We look forward to meeting you in the Uppsala University Grand Auditorium.
