Overview

Whether you are a NEW student, former student or continuing student, you are welcome to join members of OU Environmental and Sustainability Society in this informal session. 

About our Society: - 

We are a brand-new society, launching ourselves officially during freshers and we would love to recruit some more members. This Society is for students, former students, and staff of the Open University, and others who advocate our society's aims: 

  • To raise awareness about environmental concerns and climate change issues. 
  • To encourage an interest in green technologies and sustainable developments 
  • To provide opportunities for its members to meet in local groups (face-to-face where possible) and/or through online communication tools for information sharing and social purposes. 
  • To encourage the sharing of knowledge, tips, and ethical practices to create a better, more sustainable future. 
  • To foster meaningful engagement within the Open University, the Students Association, and the OU students’ community as a whole for multidisciplinary discussion on sustainability. 
  • To work with registered charities and national networks to tackle global and local health inequalities through education, advocacy, and action. 
  • To share ideas, information, and opportunities that enable the Society to meet all the above aims.  

Please join us to talk about what the society should be doing for our members and a more general discussion around environmental change and sustainability. This is also an opportunity for OU students to ask questions and talk to other OU students. 

Your hosts are: Steph Stubbins – Society Chair, Stephanie Spruce – Secretary, David Cooke – Treasurer
