Sustainability Symposium
I recently attended the Sustainability Symposium & Career Expo: Impact in Action, an event that brought together students, professionals, as well as sustainability leaders. The symposium hosted interactive breakout sessions, ample opportunities to connect with green employers, and many insightful keynote speakers. These speakers emphasized the urgency of addressing global sustainability challenges along with the importance of aligning innovation with meaningful action. She also highlighted the need to collaborate across sectors and the roles that individuals can play in creating meaningful changes. This event was also a very valuable space for networking and learning more about careers that focused towards improving social and environmental impacts. Overall, this symposium was a very thought-provoking and enjoyable experience that helped expand my understanding of sustainability while also giving me more practical insights into how I can personally contribute towards positive changes in my future career.
