The department for Climate Crisis & Sustainability is headed by Janna Ouedraogo.
As the department for Climate Crisis & Sustainability, we advocate for a climate-neutral, feminist, and discrimination-free university and work primarily on the issues of environmental and climate protection.
We consider our scope of action on two levels. On the one hand, we believe that the university and its associated institutions have a responsibility to integrate sustainability into their organizational culture. Therefore, we actively seek dialogue with the respective representatives of the actors at the university, such as building management and student services, to address issues of building, structural and nutritional improvements and bring student and critical perspectives into committees.
On the other hand, we want to bring events to our university, inform students and demonstrate environmentally friendly behaviors. In doing so, it is important to us to point away from individual criticism of consumption and to make clear that systemic change is needed. To this end, we organize various event formats, such as lectures, workshops, clothing swap parties and film evenings. AStA bicycle workshop or AStA garden also provide space for learning and exchange. Furthermore, we cooperate with committed (university) groups and support them in the implementation and promotion of their own events.
If you have ideas, suggestions or even questions for us, you can contactus at any time by mail.
