Doctoral School Sustainability Workshop
The workshop aims to help you understand how your research contributes to sustainability and the Well-being of Future Generations (WFG) and United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the overarching sustainable development framework in Wales and Internationally. This approach to sustainability provides an opportunity for innovative thinking, creative action and responsible research & enterprise and our aim is to demonstrate that your doctoral research activities contribute towards these.
This workshop is run by The Sustainability Lab at Bangor University.
