This workshop is a part of a broader BLITZ to identify all classes and scholarship that are aligned with the SDGs. A BLITZ is a “a rapid, energetic, and concerted effort, typically on a specific task.” This means that we need a lot of people engaged in a short time. 
In addition to the Feb 24 workshop, we are also recruiting volunteers to conduct short interviews with instructors to learn how they integrate sustainability in their classes  and scholarly work. 
GOAL – Identify all classes and scholarship with sustainability content during the week of Feb. 28
Volunteer commitment – attend a 30 min training session, commit to 5-10 min interviews with 8-10 instructors, complete a google form for each interview.
The ZOOM training session will be repeated three times Feb 28 (12:30 or 5pm) and Mar 1 (12:00). It will include an introduction to the SDGs, the interview and information recording process, and time for a practice interview.
