Join a thematic working group or a living lab

Would you like to use your expertise and commitment to strengthen Ghent University's climate and sustainability ambitions and translate them into concrete policy? You can do so through (student) research, living labs, participation in thematic working groups, etc.

Join the think tank Transition UGent

The think tank is an open renewal network, in which we propose new actions and policy proposals together and thus put some pressure on the sustainability policy in a constructive way.

Environmental and sustainability committee in the faculties

Most faculties have an active environmental and sustainability committee, where information is disseminated, new actions are initiated, etc. Feel free to contact the chairman for more information.
