Communication, Student Involvement

Our Objectives

Trinity has set out objectives in its Sustainability Action Plan that aim to mobilise the entire college community, such as:

  • Ensure all new students (UG, PG & Visiting) receive information about sustainability.
  • Engage with external partners to promote and influence Trinity’s sustainability ambitions.
  • Ensure inclusivity and engagement with community stakeholders.
  • Communicate through the medium of art and performing arts. 

Student Movements & Achievements

  • In 2016, a student-led movement called Fossil Free TCD resulted in Trinity pledging to divest from fossil fuels. 
  • Trinity’s Trash to Treasure student-led initiative to organise an event for students to buy previous students homeware, kitchenware and books at a minimal price.

Getting involved as a student

Trinity has lots of opportunities to get involved in sustainability, from committees, to societies and to events:

Trinity College Dublin Students Union has an Environmental Officer, who can be emailed on environmental@tcdsu.org with any questions or to get involved.

Our Sustainability Report details the progress that has been made in their implementation.
