As part of our European university alliance ERUA, students, staff, and local communities come together twice a year to take action for the environment. Around World Environment Day in June and the World Cleanup Day in September, ERUA universities organize cleanup events on their campuses, in nearby parks, along riversides or beaches, and in their cities.
Keep an eye on your university’s social media channels where the dates and times of your local cleanup events will be announced! Expected schedule:
16.09.2025 Mykolas Romeris University – University Campus
19.09.2025 European University Viadrina – Island of Ziegenwerder
14.10.2025 Paris 8 University – University Campus
16.10.2025 New Bulgarian University – University Campus
16.10.2025 SWPS University – City Centre
18.10.2025 University of Macerata – City Centre
These initiatives are simple, hands-on opportunities to contribute to sustainability, strengthen community, and raise awareness of the global challenges we face. They also connect directly to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in particular SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities and SDG 13: Climate Action.
Soon, an interactive map will showcase all ERUA Cleanups, making visible how our alliance is connected through shared commitment and action. Thank you for being a part of this.
