Prof Gilbert Silvius is a professor at LOI University of Applied Sciences, the Netherlands. He’s an expert on sustainability in project management and delivers a lecture on this topic at an IPMA Conference in Rekjavik, Iceland. He points out the importance of adopting sustainable projects for individuals, companies and wider society. Contrary to popular belief, some of the best and most advanced auditing of sustainability is actually carried out by large multinational corporations, who recognise the importance many of their shareholders and consumers place on such issues.
