JOIN THE DECODE SUSTAINABILITY EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM

A customized program for deans, heads of departments, program directors, and delegates to embed sustainability in their schools, faculties, and departments.

During the three-day event in Barcelona, you will have access to a comprehensive set of training materials and an innovative self-assessment tool to help you identify priority areas for sustainability in your academic unit. We will also present the Impact Pathways developed by DECODE, discuss the main challenges, and review good practices.

At the end of the program, you will have the opportunity to develop a customized roadmap for your academic unit, discuss it with peers from other European universities, and receive valuable feedback. Join us in Barcelona to learn, discuss and exchange ideas around the institutionalization of sustainability.

The program is intended for:

Active deans from European Higher Education Institutions (HEIs).
Heads of faculty, department, or school in HEIs.
Representatives appointed by deans or heads of faculty, department, or school of HEIs to drive Sustainable Development at the management level of the academic unit.
