Our Planet Fortnight begins this week and runs until Thursday, 29 March. Organised by Kent Union’s Environment Officer, Miguel Santos, with the University’s Sustainability Team and Kent Union, this is a fortnight to raise awareness of environmental, ethical, and sustainable issues as well as to celebrate the work done on sustainability across the University.

With a variety of events taking place both at Canterbury and Medway, the fortnight showcases the University’s commitment to promoting sustainable behaviours to staff, students and the local community. Events range from a wildlife campus photography session to biodiversity nature walks, to name a few. There are lots of events for both staff and students to get involved in.

See our Facebook page (@UKCEnvironmentMiguel) for details of each event.

Our Planet Fortnight showcases the University’s dedication to sustainable policies and behaviours. Moreover, it illustrates that the University must be at the forefront of sustainable practices to be a role model for the local community and for other institutions across the UK. Join us in celebrating the University’s environmental commitment, and let us make a more sustainable Kent for the future.
