PB was invited to participate in a DAAD-organized conference in New Delhi, on Innovation and Global Co-operation for Sustainability. This was an inspiring and fantastically participant-led event.

JPB enjoyed chairing a (spontaneous) panel on the pros/cons of academic rankings (India, Germany, U.K. etc) & how they might present challenges of inequalities in international collaboration. JPB also enjoyed giving a (invited) talk on the responsibilities of Higher Education Institutions to influence sustainable chemistry practices in academia and industry.
