Contact: Rebecca Jones

The Campus Community Partnerships for Sustainability conference was initiated in 2006 to foster partnerships between Kentucky colleges and universities and their local communities to work together towards a sustainable future. The central idea behind the conference is that institutions of higher learning should be models of responsible environmental stewardship, and should use their human and technical capacity as well as their institutional operations to improve the quality of life in the communities where they are located and which they serve. Registration before April 5th is reduced!
