Colleagues,
If you are running a centre (or hope to), I hope you join us for the Workshop below. Past events have been enormously successful, and about half the community returns every year. We pull people from almost all continents, and from large centres and from emerging ones.

Please join us for the fourth biennial workshopfor leaders of sustainability research centres, June 25-27, 2018, at the Cornell Tech campus in New York City. It promises to be a hands-on, informative event that will help to accelerate and amplify the impact of your centre.
Early registration ends April 30; visit the event websiteto review the draft agenda and register.
The workshop will explore cutting-edge insights and best practices to improve sustainability centre research, teaching and outreach. This year, we have some very exciting trainings planned and topics being discussed, including:
Two days will focus specifically on centres, and a third will explore shared concerns with the broader sustainability community, including business managers and people from the government and non-profit sectors. Topics covered on the third day include "Leadership in the Populist Era" and "Is Doing Less Bad Just Bad?"
The Network for Business Sustainability (NBS) is hosting the workshop in partnership with the Center for Sustainable Global Enterprise at the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business. (Note that the workshop is held in NYC, not at Cornell's Ithaca campus.) The workshop follows events at INSEAD in 2016, Harvard in 2014, and Ivey in 2012.
Registration will be limited to 80 people. The workshop fee is $300 USD ($350 after May 1), but limited bursaries may be available for individuals from emerging economies. Please contact Maya Fischhoff for additional information.
