Eco-Social University Days
What are the Eco-Social University Days (ÖSHT)?
The Eco-Social University Days are a series of events and aim to create theoretical problem knowledge and practical action knowledge, i.e. to sensitize people to various aspects of sustainable development and the major global challenges.
Due to the almost continuous thematization in the media, many people already have a broad knowledge of problems. The ÖSHT should additionally point out options and offer support on how this knowledge can be translated into practical actions. It also facilitates exchange and further education on a specific topic and interpersonal networking.
The first time the University Days were organized was in 2014, since then they have been held annually. Over the years, many people have been reached through the events. One tangible success that has developed from University Days events is, for example, the founding of the OVGU Sustainability Office.
