Join McMaster Libraries in exploring and celebrating the research our community is conducting in response to the climate crisis. Students, staff, and faculty are encouraged to submit projects related to climate action, climate justice, climate biodiversity, and environmental sustainability.

Project proposals or requests for project feedback or collaborations are also welcome.

The symposium will be held on Thursday March 27th from 3:30-5 PM in L.R. Wilson Hall, Room 1055 in the form of a digital poster session. Posters will be shared digitally via MacSphere, McMaster’s Institutional Repository, after the session for continued access.
