Our goal is to provide a collaborative space – a hive of activity – that unites passionate people and transformational ideas for a future built on greater environmental, social and economic responsibility.
This year CCPS will be cross-pollinating with Bluegrass Bioneers to create four days rich with ideas and inspiration and we'll be bridging the two gatherings with an unforgettable Interdisciplinary Sustainability Symposium funded with the help of UofL's Liberal Studies Department.
