Sustainability Awareness Week
October 17-23, 2011
3 campuses. 7 days. 50 events.
Learn, love and live sustainability. Join us for the fifth annual Sustainability Awareness Week (SAW) to learn something new, discover how you can get involved and explore sustainability-related issues that are relevant to you.
Take part in more than 50 workshops, tours and events across Augustana Campus, Campus Saint-Jean and North Campus, all hosted by the Office of Sustainability and brought to you by more than 30 student groups and campus organizations.
Activities will relate to economic, social and environmental sustainability and will highlight how individuals can make a difference when it comes to sustainability both on and off campus.
The primary audiences for Sustainability Awareness Week are students, staff and faculty at the University of Alberta. Many events are open to members of the off-campus community. Please check event descriptions for any restrictions. RSVP’s are required for events with limited space so participants are encouraged to register early.
