Campaigning for Change

While fostering pro-environmental and ethical personal attitudes and behaviours in students is crucial, here at NUS we frame sustainability as a social justice issue. Reducing humanity’s negative environmental impact, minimising our contributions to climate change; all of this is inextricably linked to politics, society, culture and economics. And we aim to support campaigning that reflects this.
