Intersections

Hosted by SustainPSU

Sustain Penn State invites you to join us in 2025-26 as we explore What Else Is Possible? How do we begin to envision a better future, both for ourselves as individuals and collectively for the planet? In a present full of challenges and uncertainty, the greatest tragedy would be a failure to try to imagine and articulate a more hopeful future.

Intersections. A sustainable world is one of intersections both between the overlapping global Sustainable Development Goals, like gender equity and climate change, and also between fields that approach these issues from different directions, from engineering to sociology to visual arts. Our programming aims to explore these intersections and promote engagement, community,and action at the crossroads of sustainability challenges.

All events in our programming are always free and open to the public. We look forward to building a sustainable community at Penn State with you!
