EELISA DISCOVERY – DesIgning a Sustainable and deCarbOnized uniVERsitY

EELISA DISCOVERY works with and for the university community, in order to collaboratively design, develop and implement actions that contribute to the university campuses’ transition towards more sustainable models. On many aspects, campuses are similar to small- town ecosystems, and when used as testing fields for the application of new technologies and practices, they provide access to crucial data at the community scale. In that sense, DISCOVERY seeks to boost urban decarbonization by experimenting innovative solutions on university campuses that could then be scaled up to city level.
