The Department of Climate Policy, Ecology and Sustainability has an important task: it sensitises students to sustainability-related topics. This includes aspects such as climate change, resource and energy scarcity and sustainable management. The department not only acts as its own project, but is also the central point of contact for students working on sustainable projects and initiatives. The aim is to support these projects and provide new impetus in the area of sustainability. It is an important role that helps to raise awareness of sustainable practices and steer the university community towards a greener future.

Important university groups

Fairquer

Fairquer is a group of young students from Faculty 07 of the Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences who are focussing on the topic of sustainability. Alongside our studies, we have made it our mission to report on sustainability in the clothing industry, to educate people and, above all, to show alternatives. With our work, we want to make people think and sensitise them to the issue of sustainability.
