Sustainability Week Switzerland Information

The Sustainability Week Switzerland (SWS) promotes sustainability at Swiss higher education institutions and in society at all levels. For this purpose, Local Sustainability Weeks (LSW) are initiated, networked and supported at various higher education institutions throughout Switzerland. The format of the Sustainability Week was born in Zurich and has become a success story. A Sustainability Week means that during one week all participating institutions become a think tank for sustainability. Through various free events like lectures, panel discussions, workshops etc. we want to set a focus on sustainable development. Further on, we are engaged in higher education politics in order to set concrete demands to our institutions and turn them into role models for a sustainable future.
