The Elephants in the Room
This year, the EAUC-Scotland Conference will take place in Glasgow. The full day conference will look at some of the more controversial and challenging issues facing sustainability professionals within Further and Higher Education today.
The morning sessions will consider the purpose of universities and colleges during a climate emergency and in the pursuit of a more sustainable world, and consider some of the key actions you can take internally to map and engage with others about how your institution is doing so far and where you need to go next.
In the afternoon we will take a closer look at some of the 'elephants'. With sessions currently being considered including setting meaningful carbon reduction targets, addressing academic travel, getting a handle on procurement emissions, making plastic-free pledges, carbon offsetting and supporting those with climate anxiety, the Conference will be tackling some of the thorniest issues facing our sector.
The Conference Website will be kept updated with updates to the agenda and other essential information.
