Description
This session will look at what it means to become a sustainable NREN.
But what exactly do we mean by sustainable NREN - Is it reducing climate impact? Is it having a diverse and inclusive work environment? Is it having services which are accessible? Is it being financially sustainable? or is it all of this and more?
As members look to make their supply chain more sustainable Jisc is seeing increasing pressure to report environmental impact and social value. Other NREN's are being driven by legislative drivers to report on sustainability. So, how can we ensure that networks are delivered sustainably and that we, ourselves are sustainable organisations.
There will be case studies presented: from JISC, SURF and GEANT followed by an open discussion on how NREN's are delivering against the UN Sustainable Development Goals and what the Sustainability Special Interest Group can do to support peers and promote sustainability across the GEANT network.
