Member School Event: 10th Annual Sustainability Symposium at Bucknell University

The Bucknell Center for Sustainability & the Environment is hosting the 10th Annual Sustainability Symposium, Moving from Hope to Action: Building Thriving Communities to be held April 14-15. This year’s Sustainability Symposium, Moving from hope to action: Building thriving communities, provides faculty, staff, students, and community stakeholders a forum to share research, teaching, creative works, and collaborations that generate dialogue on the effect of hope in influencing action towards creating prosperous communities. Last year, we hosted 70 presenters from 12 universities, organizations, and government agencies to discuss the power of radical hope as the foundation of future research, teaching, and community engagement. 

This year, with our keynote speaker Dr. Curt Gervich of SUNY-Plattsburgh, we move forward to discourse on actions that help conserve natural and human communities, stories of tribulations and achievements, and reflection on best management and collaboration practices that guide communities towards thriving futures in an ever changing world. Dr. Gervich and students will also lead us through a Climate Action Simulation to model how communities can move towards action.
