This is our 2nd conference using a virtual platform in this time of change in the energy-sector and during a global pandemic. REDEVELOP brings people together to work across disciplines, distance and cultures. Our collaborators from industry, government and Indigenous communities may have noticed that we rebranded last year, from a focus on the responsible development of low-permeability hydrocarbon resources to that of low-carbon energy resources; an adaptation to change. This week, you will hear from four innovative, multi-university teams of graduate students who will ask you to consider how this next generation of science, engineering and policy leaders will think about energy. Since 2017, we have trained 83 students at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
