What we offer

 

We are UAL

In 2019 the University committed strongly to taking action around climate change. Through various actions and events at college and University level, momentum is building in this area. As COP26 approaches, we are keen to seize the opportunity to reinforce the importance of the arts, creative education, research and knowledge exchange in the conversation. We aim to do this by a) taking a leadership role in an advocacy campaign bringing together a consortium of national and international culture & education institutions, to coincide with COP and b) delivering a programme of events to create both an evidence-base for this campaign and a world-leading ‘creative climate summit’. This aspect will be delivered in partnership with Glasgow School of Art and others tbc.
