Sustainable Coventry and Warwickshire
As part of our wider programme for sustainable and transformative change in Coventry and Warwickshire, we held a Symposium on October 11 to explore sustainability across a spectrum of areas. The event was spearheaded by our Global Research Priorities (GRPs) and addressed urgent sustainability challenges. The event formed part of a wider programme around sustainability to help achieve transformative change in our region through fresh innovation. We have collated photographs, presentations and videos from the day, which you can access here.

The vital challenge of sustainability, and how to address the questions it raises, are set to be examined through a collaboration of researchers and leading figures from across our region and beyond, thanks to the University of Warwick.
The Sustainable Coventry and Warwickshire Symposium (11 October) forms part of a wider programme around sustainability to help achieve transformative change in our region through fresh innovation.
