GoGreen Student Voice
Sustainability Summit
26 August - 18 October 2024
In 2022 and 2023 the online summits provided forums for students to showcase their projects and share their actions with students from other schools. Students also heard from social enterprises and corporates doing amazing work to reduce waste, reduce energy consumption and protect the planet’s biodiversity.
The theme for 2024 is to continue building connections and maintain the theme to “Learn, Share and Inspire”.
Over 5 weeks Sustainability Teams are invited to reflect on their school’s actions and programmes and to share their accomplishments.
Each week a fact sheet with links to social enterprise and corporate initiatives will be provided to sustainability teams to share information via school bulletins, newsletters, assemblies etc.
The JTSP Pollution Solution Online Conference in May 2025 and the Catholic Earthcare “Season of Creation Convocation 2024” are two opportunities for sustainability teams to learn more about what other schools are doing.
