This category is for discussions on how research institutions work with communities, partners, and networks outside their own walls. It’s a space to share case studies, initiatives, and opportunities for:
-
Civic partnerships with councils, NHS, schools, and regional authorities
-
Community and NGO collaboration
-
Citizen science and public engagement
-
Contributions to global networks and international alignment
Civic & External Collaboration is distinct from Strategy & Policy (frameworks and funder expectations). Here, the focus is on practical partnerships and co-created projects that bring sustainability in research into the wider world.
Hi all,
The Sustainable Healthcare Coalition are running a survey for more sustainable clinical trials, and asked me to share this with the network. If you work with any clinical trial units, please do share this with them. It runs until March 31st! See below -
The Big Clinical Trials Sustainability Survey, Shaping the Future Towards Low Carbon Trials
Do you work in clinical trials or within the clinical trial supply chain?
If so, we want to hear from you!
The Sustainable Healthcare Coalition have launched a short global survey to understand how environmentally sustainable practices are being applied in clinical trials today and where the greatest opportunities for improvement lie.
Your input will help shape strategies to reduce environmental impact without compromising quality, patient safety, or data integrity.
Who should take part?
We welcome insights from sponsors, CROs, clinical supply professionals, and anyone involved in the clinical trial ecosystem, no matter your level of experience or your views on environmental sustainability.
Please take a moment to complete the survey and help us reach even further by sharing it across your teams, suppliers, sponsors, and wider network.
Access the survey here
Takes just 5 minutes
Open worldwide
Closes 31 March 2026
Let’s work together to shape the future towards low carbon clinical research.
