We are excited to announce the launch of UAL Sustainability Alumni Network (working title), a new space for graduates that will focus on sustainability and the climate emergency, and how the arts are working to combat the most pressing crisis facing the planet. Whether that be through responsible design, consultancy, innovation, activism or any other medium – if you are interested in meeting and collaborating with other creative UAL alumni, sign up to our mailing list, by emailing alumni@arts.ac.uk
What we’ve done so far:
Over the summer we consulted with key stakeholders across the University, and held a number of online focus groups. These groups allowed us to hear from UAL alumni from around the world about what they are doing, and how we can support and enable them to continue to create and work in sustainable ways.
What we will do:
We endeavour to hold a series of thought-provoking, supportive and relevant events with industry-leading panellists, offer opportunities for informal- mentoring, and access to a database of UAL alumni experts within sustainability, as well as much more.
If you're interested in meeting/collaborating with other creative UAL alumni, sign up to our mailing list by emailing alumni@arts.ac.uk.
Get involved:
For this network to be successful we need your expertise and time – if you care about the climate crisis and want to do more to help, why not help us run the network? We are looking for alumni of all ages and experiences to get involved - get in touch with us by emailing alumni@arts.ac.uk.
