Students
for Global Sustainability
Students for Global Sustainability is a young chapter
of the World Student Community for Sustainabe Development.
Our interest in sustainability issues is interdisciplinary
and includes, besides environmental, social science,
economics, architecture, civil and environmental
engineering and many others. Our activities at MIT
now are focused on building up the local chapter.
One of our main goals is to promote the application
of the skill that is present in our school in our
immediate environment for the sake of sustainable
development. In the future we want to work on issues
like recycling, the focus on sustainable high and
low technologies in class syllabi, or awareness for
sustainable architecture for new buildings at MIT.
