ISTA Sustainability Day
ISTA Sustainability Day
The first ISTA Sustainability Day aims to bring together people from all research fields to exchange ideas and discuss how sustainability can be better integrated into research, teaching, and operations at ISTA. The program will feature Sofia Pazzagli who transitioned her research to include more sustainable research practices. After a short break we will have a panel discussion with ISTA scientists sharing what has worked—and what hasn’t—in their own efforts. The afternoon will conclude with a World Café session with external experts, encouraging open exchange and collaborative ideas on concrete actions ISTA can take toward a more sustainable future.
