Events with(out) impact
Events large and small are an important part of life on campus. While organizers want their events to have impact on their participants, the goal is to do so while having as little impact on the environment as possible. Therefore, the UT is working on realizing CO2 neutral events, circular events and congresses by reducing waste, transfering to low environmental impact food options and other sustainability criteria.

Sustainable events plan
Part of becoming a sustainable organization is organizing sustainable events. Therefore, UT has written a plan to bring our events in line with our sustainability ambitions - without compromising on the quality of the events. This UT sustainable events plan focusses on how medium and large sized events can contribute to create and build awareness of sustainability, in addition to reducing its own impact.
monitoring events
Monitoring and analysing data from events are needed to align the events on campus with the sustainability policy goals. After monitoring the events, measures can be formulated to reduce the overall impact of the events. Therefore, all large events on the campus must monitor and report on their impact from 2025 onwards.
