Timothy Allan will be presenting at the new Life Cycle Management Centre Workshop at Massey in Palmerston North on the 25th of August. Timothy will introduce the audience to the sustainable design activity, The SD Group, the Life Cycle Thinking workshops and some other important areas.
This new position and department has been funded by MAF and finally brings Life Cycle Thinking formally into the New Zealand tertiary curriculum. The Life Cycle Professorial candidates will also be present to talk about themselves. This is an important step forward for New Zealand to build on our capability and capacity in this area. It follows on from previous work such as the Life Cycle Thinking - Role of Inventory report undertaken for MRST and MED in 2008.
The LCM centre is supported by the key Crown Research Institutes and interest groups, and whilst having an initial focus on Primary sector will grow over time to encompass other areas.
