Event description

Do you want to contribute to sustainability, already know what needs to be done, but lack funding to get started? Or do you have a concrete project on sustainability and are looking for funding to make it a success? Join this workshop to find out about the funding programme U Change that can help finance your project! Funded student projects receive up to CHF 10,000. The current call for U Change projects is open and ends already on Sunday, 30th April 2023! This workshop is the perfect opportunity to get to know U Change and get all the important information to hand-in your proposal.
