Woods offers a broad array of conferences, webinars, and in-person briefings to ensure Stanford's environmental findings reach those who can use them. Along the way we create forums for scholars and experts across government, NGO and corporate sectors to engage with different perspectives on some of the world's toughest sustainability challenges.
