The Sustainability and Biodiversity Festival, an event that will take place from October 21st to November 1st, will serve as a platform for reflection and action around biodiversity conservation and ecosystem services. This festival aligns with the Sustainability<\/a> goal of our Strategic Plan<\/a> and the context of COP16<\/a>, which will be held in the city of Cali. It is our school\u2019s way of integrating into a large-scale civic initiative, aligning with global and local policies to combat climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
