DEI Annual Research Forum

This is an internal event exclusively for Durham University staff and students and external members of the DEI. The event offers a unique opportunity for our research community to connect, learn from one another's work, and identify potential synergies across projects and disciplines. Whether you're working in engineering, social sciences, natural sciences, or policy, this day is designed to strengthen our collective understanding of the energy landscape and foster new collaborative relationships within DEI.  

We encourage all Fellows and DEI staff members to attend, engage with the presentations, and participate in the discussions that will shape our future research directions.
