Sustainability Day @SML
Sustainability Day at the ZHAW School of Management and Law – By Students for Students.

About the Project
According to a survey among ZHAW School of Management and Law students in 2019, more than one-third would welcome more extracurricular activities on topics related to sustainable development and responsible business. This result has led to the launch of the "Sustainability Day @SML" project – an annual sustainability event entirely dedicated to social responsibility and sustainable development. It is organized entirely by students of the ZHAW School of Management and Law and is aimed at students and employees of the ZHAW School of Management and Law, other ZHAW schools, and the general public. Sustainability Day aims to raise awareness of, and sensitize participants to, sustainability-specific topics and to promote dialogue in this field.
