What is Sustainability Forum?
There is a broad interest and commitment to sustainability issues among students, researchers and staff at Uppsala University. The Sustainability Forum wants to be a platform where this commitment can be translatet into concrete action. A platform to inform, connect and support students and staff to act on sustainability within Uppsala University.
The Sustainability Forum is both a physical and digital meeting place that primarily aims to strengthen student participation in the university's internal environmental and climate work.
The forum is a result of the Vice-Chancellor's decision to establish a Green Office.
What does the Sustainability Forum do?
- Supports students and staff in their work on sustainable development
- Captures commitment from students and staff
- Strengthen students' influence in the university's internal environmental and climate work.
- Organizes events such as theme days and seminars
