Ecomapping – A Practical Approach to Implement Sustainability in our Lab

Info

WHAT will be done

Description:

Webinar dedicated to showcasing the potential of ecomapping, a visual and practical tool used to identify and improve environmental practices in the laboratory.

The session aims to help researchers:

  • Better understand the environmental impact of their daily lab activities.
  • Use ecomapping to pinpoint areas of resource use, waste generation, and potential environmental risks.
  • Define practical and achievable actions to make the lab more sustainable—such as reducing waste, improving recycling, saving energy and water, and promoting responsible chemical management.

By the end of the webinar, participants will be provided with a hands-on method to engage their teams and implement ecomapping.
