³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ

The Institute of Environmental Research and Education and the Jacksonville Environmental Protection Board partner to host an annual environmental symposium. The symposium provides a unique platform for community members, regulatory agencies, scholars, and innovators to come together and engage in discussions related to environmental policy, sustainability, and resilience.

The purpose of the symposium aims to foster cooperation and dialogue among stakeholders involved in environmental protection and improvement while providing the opportunity for community interaction.  The symposium provides valuable opportunities for communication and helps to further the goal of protecting our limited natural resources and improving the quality of life in Northeast Florida.
