ISC and The M.A Program in Graphic Communications Management and Technology at NYU will be presenting an ongoing series of seminars, webinars and colloquia focusing on sustainable print and digital media supply chains. Some of the questions that these events will address include:

  • What are some of the steps being taken by industry and government to discourage “greenwash” and reduce the negative impacts of print and digital media supply chains?

  • Is our growing reliance on digital information technology and digital media really sustainable?

  • How can QR codes and Augmented Reality be used to enhance the sustainability of media?

  • What are your legal obligations under the Lacey Act when it comes to buying & using paper?

  • What can be done to reduce the carbon footprint and toxic impacts of e-readers?

  • What are some of the real environmental impacts associated with print and digital media?

  • What is lifecycle analysis and how can it be used to inform our decisions?

  • What are some of the current limitations of lifecycle analysis and eco-labeling?

ISC’s Urban Scholar program provides Micro-Scholarships to academically promising young men and women in the US to help them complete their college degrees and mentoring to inspire them to assume leadership roles in their communities. These micro-scholarships of $500 to $1500 are paid directly to the colleges that ISC’s urban scholars are enrolled in and our mentoring efforts provide students with access to business, nonprofit and government leaders.
