Sustain
“Sustainability” has become quite the buzz word, evoking images of solar panels, rooftop gardens, and recycling bins. But too rarely do we ask the question: How do we build the world we want to sustain for future generations? From the University of Utah's Sustainability Office comes Sustain, a podcast that highlights environmental justice research and scholarship by the University of Utah community. Podcast host Maria Archibald sits down with U faculty and students to learn how the sustainability movement can build and sustain a world in which environmental integrity, social equity, and economic security prosper. New episodes will be released monthly.

Sustain host Maria Archibald meets with Ana Antunes, assistant professor of gender studies at the University of Utah, to discuss how student-focused education can lead to social change. Dr. Antunes works directly with immigrant and refugee youth on participatory projects. She believes that a sustainable education system is one that is "focused on the act of learning and teaching."
