The Sustainability Week will take place from 10 - 14 November 2025.
The programme can be found at here
This year, the topic of the culture of sustainability at the university and its surroundings will be given greater focus. With a varied programme of lectures, discussions, exhibitions and workshops, the week offers a platform for exchange and networking between actors and initiatives on the topic of sustainability. The aim is to raise awareness of sustainable action at the university, present successful examples from our research and familiarise students with the relevance of the topic in their respective subject areas. The aim is not only to anchor sustainability as a strategic cross-cutting issue and make it visible, but also to highlight the various ways in which it is already practised at our university in everyday life in research, teaching, administration and the student community. Our entire programme is free of charge and takes place at various locations at the university and in the city of Innsbruck.
Policy and reporting
In order to communicate sustainability credibly, it is essential to set an example at all levels of the university, i.e. to establish it as part of the university culture and anchor it permanently.
Sustainability Hub
The Sustainability Hub makes visible all those who live sustainability at the University of Innsbruck - committed students and employees from all areas who think strategically and take action. Together we shape change!
Co-operation and networks
Sustainability needs strong partnerships - which is why the University of Innsbruck networks regionally, nationally and internationally with stakeholders from science, society and politics. Together we make an impact!
Research
Research at the University of Innsbruck deals intensively with numerous aspects of sustainability and the associated opportunities and challenges at various levels.
Education
Education is the key to change - which is why the University of Innsbruck promotes sustainable thinking and action in teaching and continuing education. This is how competences for the world of tomorrow are created!
University operations
Sustainability begins in everyday life - which is why the University of Innsbruck is working to organise its operations in a way that conserves resources, is climate-friendly and future-oriented. From energy management to mobility: every measure counts!
Social dialogue
Sustainability requires exchange - which is why the University of Innsbruck actively seeks dialogue with society, politics and practice. Through joint projects and open formats, we bring knowledge into motion and ideas into society!
Green Office
As a student-led sustainability office, the Green Office acts as a central interface between the university management and the student body. It inspires, empowers and acts to actively promote sustainable development at the university.
