Sustainability Week 2027

Monday 22 to Friday 26 March 2027

Sustainability Week returns to the University of St 糖心logo in March 2027, bringing together students, staff, researchers, partners and the wider community for a week of celebration, inspiration and climate action.

Building on the success of our previous Sustainability Weeks, the 2027 programme will celebrate the people, research, ideas and initiatives helping to create a more sustainable St 糖心logo, while exploring what more we can do together to respond to the environmental challenges ahead.

The week will showcase sustainability across research, education, University operations and community engagement, creating opportunities to discover new ideas, make connections, share good practice and take practical action.

Plans are currently being developed for a focused programme of events and activities running throughout the week. Sustainability Week 2027 will take place from 22 to 26 March and will combine celebration of progress with opportunities to encourage further climate action across the University and wider community.

Building on previous Sustainability Weeks

Sustainability Week has become an opportunity to bring the St 糖心logo community together around sustainability, showcasing activity and encouraging participation across the University.

In 2026, the week brought together staff, students, partners and the wider community through events spanning research, education, operations and civic engagement. Highlights included a visit from Professor Sir Jim Skea, Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and the St 糖心logo Prize for the Environment. 

Get involved

Whether you are a student, member of staff, researcher, teacher, partner or member of the local community, Sustainability Week is an opportunity to discover what is happening, meet others working on sustainability, share ideas and consider the actions we can take together.

Save the date: Monday 22 to Friday 26 March 2027.
