Colorado State University is a host institution for the 2022 Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education Global Conference.
AASHE enables and connects higher education administrators, faculty, staff and students to be agents of change for sustainability. The Global Conference on Sustainability in Higher Education reaches an international audience of higher education sustainability practitioners through interactive sessions, keynote presenters and networking opportunities.
The 2022 conference’s theme — “The Urgency of Now” — emphasizes the importance of transformative sustainability solutions to match the urgency of the climate crisis.
This year’s conference will be a virtual format, with live streaming spread across three days: Oct. 18, Oct. 25, and Nov. 3. Live speakers, networking and discussion sessions will take place during the three scheduled days, while prerecorded on-demand sessions will be available to stream through Dec. 31.
