Green Labs Austria

Founded in spring 2020 by students and postdocs of the Department of Functional and Evolutionary Ecology, the non-profit organization Green Labs Austria wants to contribute to the transformation of life science research in line with the 2030 UN Agenda for Sustainable Development. To this end, the initiative is building an Austrian network of diverse research labs that share the commitment to conduct research sustainably. Find out more in their flyer here.
