Sustainable Research Workshop 2025
Event description
Queen's University set the ambitious target of achieving Net Zero carbon emissions by 2040 across operations, teaching and research in October 2023. As part of this target, the university has identified research, and more specifically labs, as hotspot areas for producing carbon emissions. Therefore, the aim of this workshop is to enable our research community to understand how they can reduce their carbon emissions through programmes and initiatives supported by the Sustainability Team.
Topics that will be covered within the workshop are as follows:
Sustainable Lab Programmes: LEAF and Green DiSC
The Concordat for Environmental Sustainability in Research and Innovation Practice
Procurement and Implementing the Circular Economy
Energy Efficiency in the Labs
