The goals of the Student Congress on Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering (SKOKI) project have, for many years, helped bring sustainability concepts closer to students of chemical engineering, chemistry, mechanical engineering, pharmacy, medicine, and beyond. It also serves as a platform for dialogue and the exchange of knowledge and expertise in achieving ecological, social, and economic sustainability. The aim is to motivate students to understand sustainability concepts and, potentially, to pursue careers in this direction.
Another dimension of the project’s objectives is popularizing sustainable processes in STEM, helping the wider public understand why and how we move toward sustainability and how this is reflected in everyday things: from non-removable bottle caps to the use of paper derivatives instead of plastics. Every innovation serves a purpose, and we’re here to explain which and how.
This conference gathers experts in sustainability; only together can they create a clear picture of why sustainability matters and how we can achieve it. As professionals at the heart of developing sustainable materials, batteries, and green technologies, sustainability is a central focus of our activities. In this rapidly changing landscape, where new technologies and perspectives emerge every day, it is extremely important to participate in dialogue with leading experts – something to accomplish through SKOKI.
