• Establishing a social licence for Cell Ag

The  Centre for Regenerative Design & Engineering for a Net Positive World at the University of Bath invites scholars, practitioners, and policymakers to contribute new, creative, innovative insights, debate and thought leadership in regenerative design and engineering, to co-evolve new solutions with societal, cultural, ecological, and economic co-impact.
 
Our goal at RENEW is to foster a collaborative intellectual and practical environment for academics, researchers, practitioners and policymakers to move beyond sustainability to regenerative solutions with positive impact, creating built environments, products, and processes that contribute to the health of people and the planet.

We might be able to offer a limited number of "day rate" places. Please get in touch regarding this, or any issues by sending an email to conferencesandevents@bath.ac.uk
