Sustainability
IEEE’s work in the sustainability space focuses on the nexus of green and digital transformation, and the transition towards responsible innovation which achieves resource optimization, transition to circular and sustainable value chains and ecosystems.
This work is aligned with the principles of ethically aligned design and the IEEE 7000-2021, as sustainability can be viewed as one of the values to be embedded in systems, products and platforms design and deployment. IEEE Europe engages with local, regional and global stakeholders on topics closely linked to European regulation, compliance, and impact to global value chains and challenges.
Recognising the vital role of young professionals in shaping a sustainable future, IEEE established the Young Professionals Climate and Sustainability Task Force (CSSC) which develops tools, resources, and support mechanisms in the intersection of climate, sustainability, and technology—strengthening the community of innovators dedicated to positive environmental and societal impact.
