Invitation
Health Care & Life Sciences in collaboration with the Sustainability Club
‘Healthcare Meets Sustainability’
In this first time collaboration between the healthcare club and the sustainability club we will shed light on state of the art insides in healthcare waste reduction by implementing recycling programs properly managing medical waste. Moreover we will introduce an innovative medicine procurement practice that saves cost and the environment at the same. Finally we will provide an inspiring example of how investing in research and development of sustainable healthcare technologies will drive solutions that benefit both patients and the planet. Integrating sustainability principles into healthcare practices will allow organizations to contribute to a healthier environment while simultaneously improving patient care and operational efficiency.
