Green Office aims to bring together sustainable research, teaching and initiatives and appointed five staff members to this end on 1 October.

Green Office will be collaborating with various partners, including the Green University task group (previously called the Sustainability Steering Group), the Science Shops and a number of existing student initiatives and local sustainability initiatives. These parties will meet during the official Green Office opening ceremony on the Dag van de Duurzaamheid, Sustainability Day, a day filled with a variety of national activities and events to help accelerate the transfer to a more sustainable society.
