Seminar Green Growth + FPI
On the 11th of December the participants of the Green Growth course and students of the Minor Future Planet Innovation came together in the Van Swinderen Huys. Together they came up with ideas to make the UG more sustainable. Employees of the UG also came by to view their ideas and cast their votes. The winning idea was a compulsory sustainability day that students and staff participate in to learn more about what sustainability is and also linked to problems in the province of Groningen. The participants thought it was a very interesting and fun day!
