Carbon footprints abroad: Sustainable student mobility with the UK and Switzerland (S9.12)

09:00 – 10:00 CEST, 12 September 2025 ‐ 1 hour

Room: A4

Roundtable session

This session explores how the UK and Switzerland address environmentally sustainable student (and staff) mobility. Switzerland’s landlocked position enables lower-carbon travel options, while the UK often relies on flights but is adopting green policies through institutions. We’ll examine the unique environmental strategies each country employs to support mobility, and we’ll discuss practical approaches for greener and more meaningful exchanges.
