Today, an advisor session titled "Zero-Waste Faculty" was held in a unique format for third-year students of the "Applied Mathematics" program (Department of Mathematical and Computer Modeling, Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics), closely linking the topic to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). During the event, students discussed ways to overcome global environmental challenges and analyzed which specific SDGs align with this initiative. The meeting primarily focused on promoting the principles of SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production. Advisor explained the importance of achieving this goal by conserving natural resources, avoiding plastic, and cultivating a culture of waste recycling in daily life.
Furthermore, the discussion highlighted SDG 13: Climate Action and SDG 15: Life on Land. Students noted that they could contribute to reducing environmental impact through eco-projects within the university. Students completed engaging tasks and shared their ideas and proposals for transforming our faculty into an environmentally friendly space. Such educational sessions foster a conscious attitude toward critical global issues and a sense of civic responsibility among students.
