Join us as we explore new approaches and engage new audiences in our effort to address emerging sustainable climate, energy, and environmental challenges.
Leveraging Johns Hopkins University’s legacy of innovation and impact, the HOP25 symposium is all about addressing some of today’s most pressing environmental challenges head-on. With an emphasis on the importance of interdisciplinary approaches, we will examine how best to integrate the power of science and technology through an inspirational and action-oriented approach.

Together, we’ll turn innovative ideas into action and impact the shape of a sustainable future for all.
