\u201cEnvironmental Infrastructures\u201d is a new Envision led skills training and engagement platform providing a range of innovative activities designed for environmental scientists. We want to help you position your research potential, help you recognise your skills, help you build your understanding of opportunities that can emerge at any stage of your PhD and your future career to influence outcomes that matter.<\/p>\n

Global change challenges are complex. Outstanding environmental science researchers are needed to \u201crethink everything\u201d and have impact on the sustainable use of finite resources in an ever-changing world. This includes scoping opportunities to address environmental issues to improve opportunities for people, business and enterprise, policy makers, science providers and decision makers.<\/p>\n

In order to achieve this \u2013 we want you to join us to develop a whole system approach to environmental thinking, enable the evolution of novel perspectives, create conditions for transdisciplinary teams to contribute \u201cscience thinking\u201d for future sustainability. Build your skills and network together to translate your world-leading environmental science thinking into \u201creal-time\u201d opportunities to recreate and address our uncertain future. This NERC Envision workshop will engage you with 21st-century global challenges that lie ahead, bring the significance of your research to find solutions, and expose you to the possibilities for real entrepreneurial impact.<\/p>\n

Our workshop is designed to facilitate team collaboration to address a series of environmental challenges across nested issues including food security, energy sustainability, climate change, the role of biodiversity, and societal benefit – focused on creating value and understanding our expectations that our biosphere, people and businesses can adapt to and respond to global change concerns with research evidence.<\/p>\n

The exciting and novel \u201cEnvironmental Infrastructures\u201d platform will intertwine active challenges with \u201cthinkers and doers\u201d including; academics, entrepreneur\u2019s, practitioners and designers to join, present, debate and discuss the future landscape of environmental sciences and its impact.<\/p>\n

Are you ready for this? \u2013 Then join us.<\/p>\n

This is a free event for all, plus expenses paid for Envision students only.<\/p>\n
