The Sustainability Office is thrilled to host our ninth-annual Eco Summit to showcase sustainability achievements, celebrate progress, and build connections for the year ahead with our campus community.

This year, our summit will focus on ways we can work together to connect sustainability to our own skills, careers, and unique roles at Waterloo – whether that’s living, working, or learning. We are all part of the sustainability story on campus, and we hope attendees will leave empowered and excited about their role to play.
