On February 28, 2023, UL Student Sustainability engaged in a thought-provoking brainstorming session with the Feminist Society at UL. Recognising the interconnectedness of social justice and environmental sustainability, participants explored the intersectional dimensions of sustainability issues.
Through introspective discussions and shared experiences, attendees examined how gender equality, diversity, and inclusion intersect with broader sustainability goals. The session fostered a deeper understanding of the complexities inherent in addressing sustainability challenges through a feminist lens.
A core part of UL Student Sustainability is the co-creation of priorities, ideas, and initiatives by and for students. Brainstorming sessions provide an open forum for students to discuss and ideate on new possibilities. The insights gleaned from the session underscored the importance of adopting inclusive and equitable approaches to sustainability, empowering individuals from all backgrounds to participate in creating a more sustainable future.
Student Sustainability has a wide array of events taking place every week, from panel discussions and debates, to workshops and guest speakers. These events are accessible for all UL students, and cover a variety of sustainability topics.
