Green Office: And what happens next?
Dear friends, colleagues, students and everyone who has worked with us for a more sustainable university,
We look back with pride on the last three years of building the Green Office and what we have achieved. We set ourselves a lot of goals right at the start of the projects and we have been able to achieve most of them with the support and commitment of many university stakeholders, students and staff alike.
We have learned that participation can only succeed if structures adapt and organizations themselves begin to learn. We have experienced how successful good communication can be when it is directed both internally and externally and generates visibility. We have experienced how well exchange and cooperation can work within collaborations at the university and beyond. For many other universities, the Green Office at the University of Kassel has served as an example of best practice and has been a pioneer for operational sustainability in combination with participation.
We would like to say thank you today, thank you to each and every one of you for your valuable participation, exchange, cooperation and many great contributions. The Green Office will no longer exist as it has had an impact on the university over the past three years. All projects that were funded by the HMWK expired at the end of 2025 and most of the Green Office team left with the projects.
In 2026, the task now is to develop a new concept under changed framework conditions. From this year onwards, Jana Winter, Nadine Chrubasik and Georg Mösbauer will initially continue the activities relating to operational sustainability. Nadine Chrubasik will move to the Kassel Institute for Sustainabilty from February 1, 2026.
