On October 21, the International Institute for Sustainable Laboratories awarded McGill a prize for its outstanding commitment to sustainability in its laboratories.
“The Lab Programs and Initiatives Award reflects the incredible momentum we’ve built across McGill’s lab community,” said François Miller, Executive Director, McGill Office of Sustainability. “From grassroots initiatives to institution-wide programs, our approach has always been about empowering lab users to lead the change.”
Over 300 lab-based staff and students, from across 14 labs, participated in a voluntary McGill program that helped lab users assess and improve their practices, contributing to a broader culture of sustainability.
