We hope that you will always be running back to us - now that we have announced our incredible speakers for the conference!

They are coming from a wide range of different backgrounds, with Prof Dick even beginning his schooling education with an undergraduate in violin!

We hope that they will provide you interesting insight into the wide variety that exists within conversation, and will keep the rest for surprise 🤞🤫

Can’t wait to see you there this Friday!

Happy international women’s day!!

It’s great to appreciate how far we have come in advocating for women, but it’s even greater to acknowledge the gaps and differences that still exist, especially for POCs in conservation, who hold the weight of both gendered and racial imbalance.

Keep encouraging women and keep backing women
And they will succeed, because they always have 😌✨

Tickets are now up for our Annual Conservation Conference!!

This year our theme is “Conservation in a Connected World” which means we are taking speakers from a variety of backgrounds (economics, psychology, anthropology etc. ) to understand how these fields intersect with conservation work, and equally how these fields enlighten new perspectives within the work :)

We are so excited to host this event, and cannot wait to see you guys there! Grab your tickets now before they go 😌🤝

Date: Friday 13th March 2026 6:00-9:00pm
Location:

There will be time for a panel discussion and also food and drinks receptions for more 1 on 1 conversations after the initial talk ( schedule on slide 5)

Come join us and learn something new, you never know you might enjoy it 😜

Yipeee it’s our first 28 days of sustainability event !!

On Friday 6th March 2026, from 4pm- 6pm we have a spring planted event planned.

We are asking that you provide your own pots for this event; examples include: yogurt pots, fruit punnets, jam jars, cups, water bottles etc.

Requirements:
- Must be cleaned out
- Must be unbroken without sharp edges

There will be a choice between a herb and a flower, and we hope to see you there!

It’s not compulsory but we also suggest writing affirmations for the coming of spring to bury under the soil in your plant, with the hope to grow these into your new year 🌱

📍IOE 642

The tickets are now available on our SU page :)

If you haven’t already noticed, UCL’ s 28 days of sustainability is about 😌

In honour of such we have 4 exciting events coming up for you guys, unfortunately lots of TBCs on dates and locations as these events are a bit different to our usual skills :)

Still, we thought we’d post this to let you guys know what we have coming up, and to remind you to save the date for our planting workshop :)
