The SD Capsule, the podcast of the UniLaSalle SD department

It's Friday morning and as you head off to campus, how about a podcast that tells you about sustainability news around the world and at your institution? Are you ready? Then let's go for The SD Capsule!

The SD Capsule is a podcast created and produced by the Sustainable Development Department of UniLaSalle. With a short format of 12 minutes, it aims to offer, in 4 sequences, precise and documented information on themes that affect staff and students. It is produced and directed entirely by the team. The main difficulty lies in the remoteness of the participants: everything is done remotely, involving the school's four campuses.

Created in June 2020, the fiftieth Capsule was broadcasted in November 2021! Interviews, thematic files, introduction to the SDGs or reading suggestions - the idea is to bring sustainable development and CSR to life.

The main objective by putting forward external news and the sharing of information, is to ensure a permanent awareness and a progressive and collective increase of students and staff at the institution.
