NEW !   Green Student Residence Award

Make your student residence
more sustainable

The Cell for Sustainable Development, in collaboration with SEVE Logement invites all students living in student residences to participate in the first Green Student Residence Award in teams of 3 to 6 students.

The student teams are invited to look into daily practices that have an environmental impact and involve the community in their residence in changing practices or adopting new measures, and to document their project and successes in a report.

One mission of the cell for sustainable development is to facilitate continued improvement in campus operation, management and planning to minimize impacts on the environment and provide a good social environment, governed by respect for natural resources and social equity considerations (such as non-discrimination). For this purpose we are developing University Position Statements that define sustainability-related goals and targets, management, planning, as well as approaches to monitoring and review of achievements. The process to develop these positions relies on participatory processes involving students, faculty, and concerned administrative staff. The draft position papers are then formally adopted by the UL Working Group on Sustainable Development, and by the rectorate.

All position statements require implementation and continued review and improvement. Some position statements (e.g. on energy efficiency and sustainable student housing management) will be connected to the development of brochures with best practices for individual community members and information campaigns.
