The Sustainable Growing Futures project is part of the Engineering Future Generations: Carbon Literacy research project, a collaboration between Cardiff School of Art and Design and AHR Architects funded by the Royal Academy of Engineering (RAE).

SGF is a community and research project to exchange and interactively transfer knowledge and grow the future. Led by Dr Keireine Canavan, the SGF project is a direct response to students and researchers interested in learning how to grow and create their own dyes, fibres, and materials in a sustainable and low-carbon way. The project was initiated in 2022 in response to a growing awareness of sustainability.
