The London Student Sustainability Conference is returning on Wednesday 24th February.
After previous successful conferences, we’re looking forward to welcoming students, staff, professionals and members of the public to our online conference, to find out more about the work which is inspiring positive impacts in the world.
The conference is entirely student-led; with students exhibiting their research and projects through presentations, posters and demonstrations.
We will also be joined by Daniel Hartz, founder of the Sustainability Champions podcast. Having interviewed countless people about bringing sustainability into their own lives and professions, he’ll be sharing his passion and belief that we can all be sustainability champions.
Join us on Wednesday 24th February to:
- Broaden your knowledge of the UN Global Goals and the challenges and solutions to today's most critical issues
- Network with students, academics and professionals from the University of London and beyond
- Gain inspiration for your own research or dissertation projects

The full programme, including session links and presentation summaries, is also available to download.
