In June 2008, Living Earth facilitated the participation of senior academics from the Institute of Petroleum Engineering (IPE) in a symposium on Sustainable Development held in Caracas. Dr Jalali, the dean of IPE, and Dr Vatani, an academic from the institute, attended the three day conference which focused on: ‘Experiences of Sustainable Development: paths to learning”. The event was organised by Living Earth’s partner in Venezuela, Fundación Tierra Viva and Simon Bolivar University (Caracas) and was sponsored by Shell Venezuela. Participants from the public and private sector were given the opportunity to share their experiences of Sustainable Development and the event provided a framework of reference IPE’s own SD conference which took place in Tehran in October 2008.
