Expert meetings of Thesis Lab Groene Zorg opened to the public

Thursday, January 30, 2025
The Groene Zorg Expert Meetings of the Thesis Lab Groene Zorg, organized by the LDE Centre for Sustainability and Medical Delta, are open to interested participants this year. Eleven students are conducting their graduation research within the Thesis Lab, focusing on sustainability challenges in healthcare organizations. Through the Expert Meetings, they gain essential knowledge, background information, and input needed for their research. For the first time, external participants now have the opportunity to join these sessions.

The awareness that healthcare can become much more sustainable is widely shared. But how do you approach that?

The Groene Zorg Expertmeetings showcase new solutions and insights for sustainable healthcare through five site visits and meetings. From healing rooftop gardens to reducing medication waste, workplace behavioral change, and recycling medical devices. With stories from, among others, the Leiden University Medical Center, Erasmus MC, Sophia Children's Hospital, Zilveren Kruis, Johnson & Johnson, Reinier de Graaf, Haga, Van Straten Medical, and researchers from the Leiden-Delft-Erasmus universities.
