On that day, you are welcome to attend (parts of) an inspiring and interactive day programme including, among others, workshops, an initiative market, a seminar on citizen assemblies and a presentation by keynote speaker prof dr. ir. Arjen Wals on the Whole School Approach. The programme will last from 9.00 - 18.00 (including closing drinks) and is organised by Sustainability Office VU.
The theme of this first edition is 'bring the action'. With this, we want to encourage the VU community to actively contribute to a more sustainable university, but also show what we are already doing, discuss it and see together where we can improve. We believe that acting together helps us move forward towards a better world.
