Dear all,
One month into 2020, UEA has plenty to offer when it comes to sustainability actions and events. Read on for climate strikes and outreach stalls, open lectures and low-waste food services! Dates for the diary ‘Big Shift Big Day’ on Sustainability on Friday 14th February UEA is holding a ‘Big Shift Big Day’ to inform the 2020-25 five-year sustainability plan on Friday 14th February. There will likely be drop-in sessions for staff and students in addition to an online consultation. Watch this space for more updates on this exciting opportunity to input into UEA’s future sustainability policies. Climate Strike on Friday 14th February The Norfolk School Strikers are calling on adults to join them for their ‘love-themed’ Climate Strike on Friday 14th February. The School Strikers will be meeting in front of City Hall from 1:00pm for a rally, and rumour has it there will be free biscuits and cake! If you plan to join the rally and don’t want to travel into town on your own, please meet us at 12:00pm behind the Student Union Building (entrance near Congregation Hall) to travel into town together by bike and bus.

Congratulations! In November 2019, UEA hosted the Students for Global Health National Conference ‘Vital Signs: Our Planet, Our Health’, wherein over 150 student delegates, expert voices and professional partners came together to share knowledge and skills around the climate change agenda. Please check out our blog for a write-up of the day. The Students for Global Health conference and coordinated theme are now being collectively nominated as the UK entry for an international award given to the most impactful project run by students. Many congratulations to the students who organised this inspiring event! Updates from different groups and societies Extinction Rebellion UEA
