COP26, taking place in Glasgow in November, is an amazing opportunity to engage students with both the international climate change treaty process and wider climate change and sustainability action.

Join us at this event as we explore:
  • How universities and colleges can engage students with COP26
  • How we can create a sustainability legacy from COP26 within our student bodies
This event is aimed at student leaders, staff who run student engagement events, and teaching staff who are interested in embedding information on COP26 or wider sustainability information within their teaching. However it is open to everyone in the sector - staff and students.

An agenda for this event can be downloaded from this page. The session will include:
  • An introduction to what COP26 is and why it should matter to students
  • Input from some of the student / youth organisations engaging with COP26
  • Case studies of some amazing student-led sustainability initiatives
  • Information on Green Impact for Student Unions by SOS-UK
  • Top tips on how to run an effective sustainability engagement campaign
We hope you can join us!
