How does digital technology impact the environment? How do we align our growing use of AI and the cloud with the needs of people and planet? SHL Digital is pleased to be offering these free digital sustainability workshops, for selected participants, as part of our project Designing Sustainable Digital Futures, which comes under the Digital Sustainability 2024 umbrella.
The Future of Digital Sustainability. This half-day workshop at The Werks (Middle Street) in Brighton, on May 30th, will explore how organisations can accelerate their green IT journey. We’ll be focusing on arts, culture, and heritage organisations. What are the easy changes you can make right away? What are the bigger shifts that will require sectoral collaboration or policy shifts? How can you engage your audiences and other stakeholders? Whether you use digital technology a lot or just a little, there should be something here for you. Apply for your place here.
