UCL Green Economy Society
'Inspiring you to create a change you believe in.'

We want to inspire and enable students to become part of the future green economy. We will aim to achieve this through acting as a platform for varied opinions across disciplines and different segments of society ranging from government, to corporate, to community, to the individual. In doing so, we can inspire students

to form their own vision of a green economy and imagine their own place within it. Through our efforts, students will then feel enabled to take action towards actively shaping a sustainable future. We will achieve this by:
- creating and facilitating multidisciplinary dialogue and debate across different segments of society;
- educating the student body;
- shedding light on the complexities and different voices within the existing discourse, whilst motivating new discourses and collaborations between stakeholders;
- inspiring behavioural change through direct action and creating awareness for sustainable practices;
- promoting and inspiring value change as an essential part of the transition towards a green economy;
- inspiring sustainable innovation and creativity;
- raising awareness for and promoting green career opportunities;
- widening our reach to include the public. We welcome students from all academic disciplines with a common interest in environmental sustainability. Join a group of like-­minded people who are interested in sustainability and career opportunities in the green economy sector! Given the COVID situation, we anticipate that most of our events will be held virtually during this academic year. As such, we strongly recommend members to select the Remote Membership option at http://studentsunionucl.org/clubs-societies/green-economy-society , which is completely free!
