Gita Wirjawan, in collaboration with Dr. Arun Majumdar, the Dean of Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability, invites you to engage in a stimulating dialogue concerning a holistic approach to sustainability, the pivotal role of educational institutions, and the shifting paradigms of future energy.

Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability is the university’s first new school in 70 years, made possible by a $1.1 billion commitment from Silicon Valley entrepreneur John Doerr and his wife Ann. The combined gifts, totaling $1.69 billion, are the largest gift in Stanford’s history and the second largest private donation to an American university in history.

Built for impact, the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability will have a distinctive three-part structure that includes rigorous academic departments, interdisciplinary institutes, and an accelerator for technology and policy solutions in eight domains: climate change, Earth and planetary sciences, energy technology, sustainable cities, the natural environment, food and water security, human society and behavior, and human health and the environment.
