What is EU GREEN?

EU GREEN is a university alliance of nine European universities with the aim of jointly promoting sustainability in education, research, innovation and society.

How does EU GREEN promote sustainability?

Sustainability is at the heart of EU GREEN. All activities are based on the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and should make a positive long-term contribution to society and the environment.

We have set ourselves the task of actively making a positive difference and place social responsibility as a guiding principle at the heart of our mission. Our vision goes beyond building a European university. We want to train citizens and drive research and innovation that contribute to the development of our local and regional ecosystems and thus provide answers to pressing challenges for society as a whole.

Is there any further support with research funding?
