The annual EAUC Conference proved once more why it is a firm favourite for education and sustainability professionals alike last week. Held at the beautiful Keele Univeristy, we debuted our exciting new academic side to the event, and showcased an impressive line up of workshops and keynote speakers.
In a series of firsts for the conference; this year was the first time it has had both a campus stream and an academic stream and workshops were collaborative and hugely inspiring. It was also the first year that a journal will be produced that captures all of the best practice and shared learning from presenters.
Sponsored by Carbon Credentials, the conference focus was aligned with Goal 17 of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) ‘partnerships for the goals’ and this theme continued throughout the whole event.
