Commission Sustainable University

At its meeting on December 12, 2019, the Academic Senate of the Humboldt-University decided to establish a "Commission for Sustainable University" (KNU).
It will develop a climate protection strategy for the university and initiate appropriate measures for implementation. The commission is coordinated by Christin Thiel and the climate protection management.
The work of the commission is carried out in a working group structure.
Some of the working groups are led by students from the Sustainability Office. The working groups are staffed by administrative employees, students and scientists. The open structure enables all HU members to work together on a sustainability strategy for the HU.
