Student Brainstorming: Nurturing Environmental Consciousness

Thursday, 11 April 2024

On 28 February 2023, UL Student Sustainability collaborated with the Environmental Society for a collaborative brainstorming session focused on nurturing environmental consciousness within the university community.

During the hour-long session, participants explored strategies for promoting environmental awareness and fostering sustainable behaviours among students and staff. Through group discussions and interactive activities, attendees shared insights and best practices for reducing ecological footprint and promoting biodiversity on campus.

A core part of UL Student Sustainability is the co-creation of priorities, ideas, and initiatives by and for students. Brainstorming sessions provide an open forum for students to discuss and ideate on new possibilities. The session provided a platform for stakeholders to unite around a shared vision of sustainability, generating actionable ideas to embed environmental stewardship into the fabric of campus life.

Student Sustainability has a wide array of events taking place every week, from panel discussions and debates, to workshops and guest speakers. These events are accessible for all UL students, and cover a variety of sustainability topics.
