Sustainability: The New Defence Culture

Click to Register

In partnership with ADS, join us to hear from industry and Ministry of Defence (MOD) experts who will discuss what are the key framework streams an MOD and Industry Partnership will need to develop and adopt for a sustainable future.

UK Defence will be a critical part of the UK meeting its Net Zero target in the coming decades. If this is to be achieved it is important that all elements of defence, from design, development and manufacture through to operation and disposal, and all the steps in-between, work with sustainability in mind.

For sustainability and climate change principles to be fully embedded in UK defence it is important that industry and government are able to share a joint vision and align our technology, equipment, investment and procurement priorities. Coordination, collaboration and communication in the early years of this important initiative are vital. 

Panelists include:

• Lt. Gen. Richard Nugee CB,CVO, CBE - Climate Change and Sustainability Strategy Lead - Ministry of Defence
• Andy Clifton - Global Sustainability Manager, Engineering & Design, Rolls Royce - Co-Chair of ADS Sustainable Procurement Working Group
• Sam Healy BEM - Group Corporate Responsibility Director, QinetiQ - Chair of ADS Environment and Sustainability Working Group
• Jayne Moorby - Marketing Manager, Oxley Development Co Ltd - Manufacturer Top 100 Winner
