Overview
The climate crisis has raised challenges for universities when achieving their Net Zero, climate literacy and green skills goals. Join us online on Thursday 6 February 2025 as we bring together leading experts and practical examples, delving into key steps, advice and evidence on how universities can drive urgent climate action.
You will also be able to access the recordings of all sessions after the event, including any sessions which you were unable to attend live.
Why should you attend?
This online one-day conference will provide informative, timely content from the most pertinent speakers on the topic, as well as a wide range of opportunities to network, discuss, and make connections with colleagues within the sector.
Take a look at what some of our past attendees thought:
- "I very much appreciated that there were some students presenting at the UUK sustainability conference as the future belongs to the next generation. I also appreciated some inspiring programs that supported climate literacy and transition to green jobs within the local community."
- "This is a great conference to hear what's live and emerging on sustainability in HE, and make some useful contacts."
- "I started the day feeling a little disillusioned with the lack of interest in the climate emergency and sustainability I am experiencing. I ended the day feeling positive - there are people who genuinely care and are making a difference - we will gather momentum, I'm sure."
“Engaging speakers guided participants through the complexity of challenges facing UK universities research activities."
