(March 8). We are helping with a pilot event for the Tufts Multi-Site Low-Carbon Conference Hosting (MULCH) Initiative. For the annual Tufts Nutrition Data Symposium (TNDS)<https://sites.tufts.edu/friedmanresearchsymposium/> keynote March 8, on the theme of Sustainability Now!, there will be in-person sites in London (at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine) and Boston (Tufts University). The start time is noon eastern US (5pm London). There will be a reception afterwards with video and audio links between the Boston and London sites, with start time 1:15pm eastern (6:15pm London). For #flyingless innovation, in addition to the remarkable activity around online conferences in recent years, this type of genuine in-person event in multiple sites also seems worth exploring. At the event, I will introduce the keynote speaker Catherine Nakalembe of the University of Maryland and give a short introduction to university #flyingless efforts. March 8 also is International Women's Day. Please join us especially if you can come in person to the Boston or London sites (online viewing is also possible through the link above). * Stay Grounded.
