Who are we?
The Digital Sustainability SIG is an open and inclusive network fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing among educational institutions committed to taking meaningful sustainability focused action. We aim to empower colleagues by providing a space for cross-institutional conversations, learning, and collaborations. Our focus encompasses sustainable digital practices and pedagogy, and the intersection of equality, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility (EDIA) with sustainability.
