Sustainability Interview Series
From reducing energy consumption, to developing a biodiversity strategy, to creating new funding possibilities for climate protection, Freie Universität Berlin has been busy these last twenty-five years establishing measures to ensure that the university contributes to a sustainable future. The Sustainability Report, published in August 2026, gives an overview of the university’s current activities in this area, as well as the proposed plan for the next three years. But what does sustainability look like in everyday university life? And who is driving it forward? In a series of interviews, members of Freie Universität talk about what sustainability means to them, where they are taking action themselves, and what they would like to change.
