2026 Coffee Chats for Sustainability Leaders
Wednesday, October 28th, 9-10am CST - Building Bridges: Social Justice and Sustainability
It’s about the leaning in, the learning and the living of relationship building on campus and in community.
Our conversation will start with Dave Barbier (Sustainability Director, UW Stevens Point) sharing about his efforts to try and broaden the Social Justice conversation on his campus. We’ll get into the good, the deltas and the unexpected of this still-happening multi year journey to bring people and a just transition forward in the sustainability space of a small midwest liberal arts college. There will be plenty of time for you to share your own experiences and ask questions.
