Shaping Futures is a campaign aimed at raising awareness of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In particular, the campaign will focus on Responsible Consumption and Production, Gender Equality, Quality Education, and Climate Action.

Throughout the week commencing 1st March, we’ll be holding events and tutorials for both staff and students to learn about the goals, about what opportunities are out there, and how we can live more eco-friendly.
