IRIS Executive
The IRIS executive includes a diverse group of faculty, staff, and students currently at York, along with alumni who have been active in promoting on-campus sustainability activities in the past. We are also aiming to reach out to the broader community beyond the borders of the York campus. The main prerequisite for participation in the IRIS executive is a willingness to go out and do something about promoting sustainability, both from a research and community engagement perspective.
