6th Hessian Sustainability Day

On September 10, 2020, the statewide day of action will enter its sixth round, and sustainability will be brought into focus through numerous events and campaigns throughout Hesse. The University of Kassel is also taking part. For the duration of three weeks and together with the Environmental Profile Development Research and Teaching and the AStA, the Integrated Sustainability Management in Operations will release a digital brainstorming on the topic of sustainability for all students and employees.

With the brainstorming, the university would like to initiate a participatory process on the topic of sustainability and thus address the following questions: What specific role do colleges and universities play in a sustainable society? Where does the University of Kassel stand when it comes to sustainability? In which areas is it a pioneer and where is there still room for improvement?

Under the following link, participants can leave a statement, express a wish, or give an idea or suggestion starting September 10, 2020: https://www.uni-kassel.de/uni/universitaet/profil/profil-umwelt-und-nachhaltigkeit/umwelt-und-nachhaltigkeit

The goal is to invite people to take a closer look at the topic on Sustainability Day and to encourage them to think about possibilities, visions and goals for more sustainability at the University of Kassel.

The campaign will end on October 1, 2020, after which the results of the brainstorming will be published anonymously on the Environment and Sustainability web pages. At an event on October 9, 2020, there will be an opportunity for further exchange on the topic of sustainable development at the University of Kassel. Here, too, the results of the brainstorming will be presented.

The organizers of the University of Kassel are looking forward to receiving numerous feedbacks and ideas, which will be gladly considered for further planning on the way to a sustainable development of the university operations.
