Updated guidelines for KI's crisis organisation

A well-functioning crisis organisation is important to be able to handle special events/crises and to minimize damage to KI's operations, employees, researchers and students. 

Updated guidelines for the organisation are now available, including crisis plans.

KI’s environmental efforts pay off

KI’s ambition is to halve its emissions of greenhouse gases by 2030 and become climate neutral.

It is gratifying to find that in its 2023 environmental management report, KI is no longer on that list.
