At UM, sustainability is more than just a goal—it's a movement. The #JoinTheGreenNetwork initiative invites everyone within our community to come together and make a collective impact on our environment. Whether you're a student, staff member, or researcher, you have the power to drive meaningful change.

We believe that together, we can reach our sustainability targets, build a climate-neutral and circular campus, and cultivate a thriving community where sustainability is at the core of everything we do. But we can't do it alone—we need YOU. Let's work together to make a positive impact and achieve a sustainable future.

Submit your research to the Circularity Research Call

In 2024, UM launched a €350,000 research seed fund to promote interdisciplinary collaboration around the theme of Climate change. In 2025, the Research Call will specifically challenge circular research projects. The call specifically encourages joint proposals between faculties, recognising that complex sustainability challenges require diverse expertise. This initiative not only strengthens UM’s research profile in sustainability, but also generates knowledge with direct societal relevance. It reflects the university’s commitment to enabling research that supports systemic change.

Take the leap with us to a sustainable UM

The Green Office is the student-led initiative to support sustainability at UM. Join us in taking practical steps towards a more sustainable UM by participating in exciting events like repair workshops, thrift markets, and clothing swaps—all aimed at reducing waste and promoting circularity.

But it doesn't stop there! You can also get involved by volunteering with the Faculty Green Teams, where you’ll have the chance to contribute directly to sustainability efforts within your faculty. Whether you’re organizing events, running campaigns, or helping develop green initiatives, there’s always an opportunity to make a difference.

Step up and become an active part of UM’s sustainability community.
