SUMMARY:PRME - How can businesses and academia address the problem of plastic waste?
DESCRIPTION:Yorkshire and Midlands Regional Networking Event – open to all \nHow can businesses and academia address the problem of plastic waste? \nDate: 3rd April 2019  \nLocation: Sheffield Business School\, Cantor Building\, Room 9234 \n  \nAgenda \n12:30 Arrival\, buffet lunch and networking \n 1:15  Welcome and outline of day \n1:30 Keynote speakers – 30 minutes per session including Q and As. \n\nDr Anne Kildunne\, Plastics Collaboratory\, University of Hull\,\n\nThe Plastics Collaboratory at the University of Hull comprises more than 25 staff across a range of academic disciplines working to address to address the problem of plastic waste and propose new solutions.  A major new research project funded by the EPSRC aims to use the Circular Economy model to identify gaps and leaks in the plastics circular economy and work with a wide range of stakeholders to develop practical solutions. \n\n2:00 Professor Elizabeth Kirk\, Professor of International Environment Law\, Nottingham Trent University\n\nDo we need a new treaty to tackle plastics in our oceans?  “Marine Plastics and International Law: Time for a Treaty?” \n  \n\n2:30 Nicholas Hunt\, Environmental Manager\, University of Loughborough\,\n\nThe alternatives to plastics and are they really better or just creating other problems \n\ncompostable and biodegradable plastic alternatives\nExamples of materials used instead of plastics\nThe carbon footprint impact of the alternatives\n\n\nThe real challenge with plastics \n\nDifferent plastic types\nRecycling plastic\nPlastic litter\nThe single use plastics we do need to avoid\n\nSummary of what needs to be done to win with plastics.. \n  \n3:00 Refreshments to take to break out rooms \n3:15 Discussion in break out rooms (depending on numbers attending) \n4:00 Final plenary – 4:30 finish \n  \nRegister your interest and reserve a place \n  \nThe aim of this event is to help us all gain a better understanding of the problem with plastic\, and to develop ways to counter this global challenge\, either in class with our students\, through our research or in our engagement with businesses. \n  \nTopics for discussion in break-out sessions – these are negotiable and may change according to what participants want on the day. \n\nWhat are the implications for universities in terms of teaching\, research and good practice?\nHow can we address the plastic problem in our teaching and/.or research and engage our students and other stakeholders?\nHow can businesses help us with this?\n\nHow to find us \nhttps://www.shu.ac.uk/visit-us/how-to-find-us/city-campus-map \n  \nFacts about Plastic and why it is a growing problem \nIn 1950\, the world’s population of 2.5 billion produced 1.5 million tons of plastic; in 2016\, a global population of more than 7 billion people produced over 320 million tons of plastic. This is set to double by 2034. \nEvery day approximately 8 million pieces of plastic pollution find their way into our oceans. \nhttps://www.sas.org.uk/our-work/plastic-pollution/plastic-pollution-facts-figures/ \n  \nOnly about 9% of plastic produced has been recycled\, 12% has been burned and the remaining 79% has ended up in landfills or the environment. \nDiscarded plastic is harming the marine environment and impacting on low income communities living by polluted rivers. \n  \nHere are some more facts about plastic: \n\nOver the last ten years we have produced more plastic than during the whole of the last century.\n\n\n50 percent of the plastic we use\, we use just once and throw away.\n\n\nEnough plastic is thrown away each year to circle the earth four times.\nWe currently recover only 5% of the plastics we produce.\n\n\nPlastic accounts for around 10 percent of the total waste we generate.\n\n\nThe production of plastic uses around eight percent of the world’s oil production (bioplastics are not a good solution as they require food source crops).\n\n\nPlastic in the ocean breaks down into such small segments that pieces of plastic from a one liter bottle could end up on every mile of beach throughout the world.\n\n\nAnnually approximately 500 billion plastic bags are used worldwide. More than one million bags are used every minute.\nhttps://www.ecowatch.com/22-facts-about-plastic-pollution-and-10-things-we-can-do-about-it-1881885971.html

The menus at Fischer’s restaurant constantly change with the seasons and they are a celebration of British produce. \n“We want to expand on this value further this year and really champion our local producers wherever possible\, and local independent suppliers where it is not. We want to promote the great food and drink our region has to offer\, and demonstrate how exciting and sustainable buying local produce and supporting local businesses can be. \n“Sheffield Hallam prides itself on contributing to the economic growth of the region and this is just one example of how the University does that.” \nHe added: “It is not just local businesses that we are celebrating but also our SHU alumni\, too. Sophie Williamson obtained her Masters at SHU before going on to set up Sheffield Cheesemasters. Max Scotford from Bullion Chocolate is also a recent graduate and his award-winning chocolate\, made here in the city\, will also feature.” \nMax said: “I really enjoy doing it. We need young people who are enthusiastic and enjoy the industry. This is a great way to show them the industry and what is out there in the world.

SUMMARY:Best Practice in Destination Marketing Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Announcing the 6th Sheffield Business School ‘Best Practice in Destination Marketing Symposium’ to be held on Wednesday 27th February 2019\, Eric Mensforth Building\, Room 3021\, Sheffield Hallam University\, 14.00 – 17.00. \nTo book on this event visit our Eventbrite page \nContemporary Challenges for Destination Marketing \nThe annual Destination Marketing Symposia* held at Sheffield Hallam are free events aimed at students\, academics and practitioners. This year’s symposium examines the challenges for destination marketing which relate to a range of issues linked with a destination’s external macro environmental factors\, competitive forces\, resource management\, product development\, branding\, and differentiation. Destinations are widely acknowledged as being both pivotal to the tourism system and extremely complex products which are difficult to market and manage effectively. In remaining competitive\, destinations are faced with many challenges associated with increasing visitor numbers and expenditure\, providing satisfying\, memorable experiences that link key brand values and assets with the aspirations and needs of target markets\, while enhancing the well-being of destination residents and preserving their natural capital. \n  \nOne of the key challenges associated with the scale of the product is the fragmentation of ownership and the lack of overall control which can undermine the implementation of a strategic approach to marketing the destination as an entity. As such\, destination marketing organisations (DMOs) play a critical role as a unifying force in relation to harnessing the component parts of the product\, forging partnerships and alliances and both co-ordinating and representing stakeholders. Most tourism destination products are not unique and competitive advantage requires innovation and creativity to survive and grow in an increasingly global and dynamic market\, but innovation is linked with uncertainty\, risk\, cost and potential for failure.

SUMMARY:Developing a Publication Strategy
DESCRIPTION:The writing and publishing of research accounts is a rewarding\, yet challenging\, part of a researcher’s life. In recent years\, much emphasis has been placed upon publications in peer-reviewed journals\, in particular CABS listed ones. However\, an exclusive focus on one kind of publication and few publications outlets not only has many disadvantages\, but it is neither feasible nor desirable for many research active colleagues. In this workshop we will discuss how to develop a publication strategy which reflects a more inclusive approach and takes factors such as timelines\, targeted audiences\, career aspirations\, institutional contexts etc. into account. \n  \nIndicative topics are: where and what to publish; editing and editorial roles; timelines; targeting audiences; the role of books; other media; authorship (sole\, multiple\, first or last\, does it matter?); aligning one’s outputs with the institutional projects (e.g. REF\, AACSB). \n  \nThe workshop is facilitated by Professor Susanne Tietze and includes some exercises through which colleagues can start to develop a publication strategy. \n
