Program:

Join us to hear from two sustainability-oriented teams at U of U Health as they share their perspectives on sustainability efforts on the health sciences campus, using the Practice Green Health and Planetary Health Report Card assessments. Presenters are comprised of U of U Health staff, faculty, and students, who will discuss our hospital & clinic operations and our medical school curriculum. These groups last shared with us in December 2021, so this event will be an opportunity to hear about all that’s happened since then.
