This project builds on the Solarize HSG Project 21' and aims to install more solar panels on the campus of the University of St. Gallen. So far, solar panels have been successfully installed on Building 23 and the Square. You can find out how much electricity it produces here. The students want to build on this success and realise further projects - this time by including the community in a crowdfunding for financing the next HSG solar roof. For the successful implementation, collaborative cooperation of the University and the Canton is required to guarantee a long-term and sustainable infrastructure of the University of St. Gallen.

The aim of the project is to raise awareness among students at the University of St.Gallen for low-carbon travel by train. To enable this the project team focuses on two objectives. Firstly, we create an awareness campaign on social media and on the HSG campus in order to confront students with the topic and give information and travel tips via several channels. In parallel, HSG internal and external partnerships are being sought to raise awareness of the project and negotiate discounts and other offers.

Climate CurriculumVon Insight to Impact - getreu dem Motto der Universität St. Gallen wollen wir dafür sorgen, dass sich die Generation von morgen der immensen Bedeutung ihres Handelns für die Welt bewusst ist. Die nächsten zehn Jahre sind entscheidend, um den Klimawandel einzudämmen. Wir wollen in den Schulen vor Ort ein Bewusstsein für die Problematik und die Dringlichkeit schaffen und mit einem Klimatag zum Handeln aufrufen. An diesem lernen Schülerinnen und Schüler anschaulich über Fakten zum Klimawandel sowie mögliche Lösungen für die klimatischen Herausforderungen. Zudem wollen wir im Rahmen des Bachelor-Studiums an der Universität St. Gallen einen Online-Kurs zum Thema Klimawandel einführen, damit die Führungskräfte von morgen klimabewusste Entscheidungen treffen.

We are convinced that many HSG members are artistically gifted in addition to their intellectual abilities. That is why MaCS and proArte, together with the support of the Art Commission, invited all HSG students to take part in the Climate Art Competition of the spring semester 2022. Participants could demonstrate their talent and make a climate-positive contribution at the same time. The ultimate goal was to broaden the perception of the HSG as a sustainable, cosmopolitan and progressive university and to make students aware of the fact that "climate change is expensive".
