Strathclyde Green Office
What is the Green Office?
The Green Office is a student-led sustainability team with the mission to empower students to become active citizens by embedding sustainability across student experience on campus and the community at the University of Strathclyde. The team drives meaningful change across campus by working in partnership with staff and academics.
Objectives
The Strathclyde Green Office has four strategic objectives:
- Behaviour Change: Plan and deliver sustainability activities, campaigns, and events.
- Green Careers: Cultivate sustainability leadership and transferable green skills.
- Sustainability Awareness: Raise awareness around sustainability through digital content and in person communications.
Part of a Global Movement
The Green Office is supported by SOS-UK International, launched in 2019 to enable student and youth organisations worldwide to lead on sustainability and social justice in higher education.
The Green Office Movement
Through the wider Green Office Movement, students, staff and academics collaborate to advance sustainability both within universities and beyond. As part of this global network, Strathclyde’s Green Office contributes to a shared vision of transformative, student-powered change.
