Events

In addition to hosting and co-hosting sustainability events and program info-sessions throughout the year, we host the Changemaker Speaker Series. A signature program of the Changemaker Collaborative, the Sustainability Institute's partnership with the Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics and the Carsey School of Public Policy, the Changemaker Speaker Series covers a diverse range of topics related to the world’s most pressing challenges, including the climate crisis and racial injustice.
