The week-long campaign gathers over 20 services, faculty, and clubs and across campus to host online and offline activities showing the amazing work that is already being done to progress sustainability and how they connect on campus.
The hunt features an exclusive viewing of the ‘Our Sustainable Future’ photography exhibition throughout the week as its first ever university viewing.

The Lieutenant Governor will be visiting the campus to provide remarks at the Global Solutions Conference on March 16th.
