Sustainability Showcases
​ Fall 2020

The Sustainability Showcase Series

The Sustainability Showcases make connections between faculty research, personal and professional interest and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals while broadening the discourse surrounding sustainability. Speakers are invited to give a thirty-minute talk, answer questions and hang around to mingle with attendees.

Facing COVID-19 and climate change, and having national conversations about racism and anti-Blackness in America, has made it clear — as last year's Showcase theme suggested, the time to act for a more sustainable world is now. The Penn State community can and should be at the forefront of this change. This is why our theme this year is Make Your Impact, with thematic priorities of Adapting to COVID-19, Emphasizing Justice, and Connecting People & Ideas. We're confident that this year the Showcase series will present attendees with the same interdisciplinary expertise that has defined the last few years of Showcases. We're looking forward to seeing you, virtually! 


Events are on Fridays 12 pm - 1:30 pm and are held via Zoom.

*Thank you for your patience as we update our website to reflect the spring 2021 series!
