isr presentational event

isr recognises its commitment to inform QUT staff and students, its external participants, the broader research community and the public about its activities and the research being conducted at QUT. This is achieved through speaker presentations, special events, quarterly newsletters, media coverage and academic reports and publications. The institute also collaborates with other organisations involved in sustainability to provide joint opportunities and cross promotion.
