Sustainability is an integral part that is inherently integrated into our project. Given our experience in this area, Natronaut is currently developing a Sustainable Development Booklet. This booklet will share our experiences with the community, as an outline for how iGEM projects can align with global sustainability goals.
The SDG Booklet is aimed at guiding future iGEM teams through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in addition to self-assessing what SDGs teams decide to fall into and focus on. Questions such as “How many SDGs should a team focus on?” and “How should each SDG be tackled?” are answered in this 16-paged booklet. Moreover, the special prize awarded to iGEM teams who undertake SDG consideration is described and tackled via a step-to-step instruction which Natronaut hopes will reach and be made great use of by iGEM generations to come.
