Sustainability Cohort
What is the Sustainability Cohort?
The Sustainability Cohort is a group of researchers and practitioners working on industrial sustainability from a variety of angles, including design, engineering and manufacturing. The Cohort's aim is to encourage peer-to-peer learning and sharing support mechanisms among doctoral researchers in their PhD journey as well as practitioners and senior academics. The Sustainability Cohort is created for researchers/practitioners by researchers/practitioners.
Objectives
- To bring together a group of researchers and practitioners with interests in sustainability and industry (design, engineering, manufacturing, factories) to seed an environment in which a community (and communities) can emerge.
- To enable researchers to share knowledge and ideas in the spirit of knowledge enhancement and personal development rather than to solve any particular problem.
