The UBC/UW Summer Institute in Sustainability is designed for those taking a leadership role in developing policy, creating plans and implementing sustainability projects in large businesses, colleges, universities, and local, state and provincial governments.

This intensive professional development program provides participants with the perspectives and practical skills necessary to make sustainability the foundation of an organization’s on-going operations. 

The program consists of seminars by sustainability experts and practitioners, applied case studies and guided field excursions to sustainability projects; applied workshops focusing on sustainability planning, open space sessions that allow participants to address their own issues and ideas, and opportunities for networking.  See our week at a glance for an overview of the week’s activities.
