Healing Our Planet 2025 (HOP25)
April 12 @ 9:00 am - 7:30 pm
The acronym “HOP25” is an homage to the Conference of the Parties (COP) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), emphasizing a shared commitment to sustainable action and global collaboration for the planet’s future. We share the commitment of COP and similarly take a hopeful and action-oriented approach to climate change, energy, and environmental policy, engaging new audiences and exploring new solutions in the fight for a sustainable future.
Symposium Goals and Objectives:
- Call to attention for emerging sustainable climate, energy, and environmental challenges and solutions, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary approaches, integrating the themes of science, technology and solutions.
-
Highlight AAP as a key institution with a long history both academically and as a contributor to and agent of change for public policy, awareness and understanding of complex environmental issues.
-
Reach a broad audience (academia [including students, faculty, adjuncts], decisionmakers, science/conservation practitioners, NGO/advocacy groups, private sector, governmental agencies, interested public, etc.) to build awareness and understanding of emerging issues and foster collaborative efforts towards solutions
