Intersections

Hosted by Penn State Sustainability

Penn State Sustainability invites you to join us for our 2024-25 public programming exploring the theme of Mind Over Matter: how personal and social resilience can come through reconnection to our values, places, communities, and non-human nature.
Our Intersections films and Sustainability Showcase speakers will offer enlightening stories and inspiration for how you can advance on your own sustainability journey.

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!
