From 12 to 21 November 2025, we’re hosting Climate Week, in collaboration with the Climate Team, a week full of inspiring activities on climate and sustainability.
While world leaders gather in Belém for COP30, the UN Climate Change Conference, our university community will come together to explore how we can make a difference locally. Through open lectures, thought-provoking documentaries, creative workshops, and the second edition of the Repair Café, Climate Week offers countless opportunities to learn about sustainability, connect with peers, and help make a change.
