We invite you to join a virtual sandpit workshop, which will be held to support the development of a new digital sustainability assessment tool for chemical laboratory activities. The tool is being created as part of the Sustainability Training & Assessment for Research in Chemistry (STARC) Network, funded by the ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø.
Designed for use in undergraduate practicals and student research projects, the tool will offer a simple, user-friendly way to evaluate the environmental sustainability of lab-based activities (akin to a COSHH form).
The sandpit will bring together contributors from academia, industry, technical services, and student communities to explore:
Participation is open to anyone with an interest in sustainable chemical and / or pharmaceutical science, including those in EHS roles.
The sandpit will be held online via MS Teams. Access details will be provided following registration via the STARC Network Interest Form.
