Challenging Connections
Incorporating the Student Sustainability Summit, Further Education Sustainability Summit and Transformational Leadership Summit
CONFERENCE IN A SNAPSHOT
EAUC Annual Conference 24–25 March | University of Leeds
We can’t talk credibly about sustainability if we don’t include all voices in the debate
THIS YEAR FOR the first time the EAUC’s Annual Conference, 'Challenging Connections', will provide a formal stage for all of the voices in the tertiary education sector so that they can inspire and challenge one another, and forge new connections. The most comprehensive sustainability
event in tertiary education has a new format this year. Three complementary summits will run alongside the two- day core programme – the Student Sustainability Summit the day before the main conference starts, the Further Education Sustainability Summit running parallel to day one and the Transformational Leadership Summit, running parallel to day two. With contributions from University of
British Columbia, Unilever, Rolls-Royce, United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the Global Universities Partnership for Environmental Sustainability (GUPES), the EAUC hosts a next-generation sustainability conference which breaks the boundaries, makes new connections, introduces new voices and unites students, academics, leaders and sustainability professionals in one powerful whole-sector international event. Delegates at the Further Education
(FE) and Transformational Leadership Summits will start and finish their days with the main conference delegates for the keynote speeches.
A comprehensive programme Taking place on 23 March, the day before the EAUC Conference starts, the Student
Sustainability Summit is a day dedicated to inspiring and empowering students to take action. The powerful partnership of the EAUC, NUS and People & Planet brings you a summit not just about creating new leaders today, but focused on embedding sustainability into the core purpose of our education system. On 24 March, day one of the main
conference programme is themed around the LiFE priority of Estates and Operations. Running parallel is the inaugural FE Sustainability Summit, an EAUC and Association of Colleges (AoC) partnership. Starting and ending with the main conference keynote presentations, the day will feature an impressive line-up of speakers and workshops discussing, debating and showcasing sustainable development strategies and action within the FE sector. Feel free to dip in and out of the summit and the main conference workshops. Day two of the conference is on
25 March and puts the spotlight on the remaining LiFE priority areas of Partnership and Engagement, Learning, Teaching and Research, and Leadership and Governance. Taking place at the same time is the Transformational Leadership Summit at which senior leaders and managers can be the first in the UK to experience the Core Business Integration of Sustainability (CBIS) Executive Programme, developed at the Harvard University Center for Health and the Global Environment.
