Your fast lane to sustainability action!
Apply for €500–€10,000* funding to bring your sustainability action ideas to life with our support!
Turn your sustainability ideas into reality!
Introducing the Sustainability Action Booster, an expense grant dedicated to empowering students and unleashing their creative ideas for a sustainable future. Our mission is to provide opportunities for students to initiate and participate in student-owned sustainability actions – both on campus and beyond!
So, are you a student with a sustainability idea in mind that could use some extra financial resources?
Wait no longer! Whether you have a small project idea or a wild sustainability vision, we want to help bring your ideas to life! Check out our application criteria and apply anytime for a grant ranging from €500 to €5 000. At predetermined times (twice in 2024), we also offer the possibility of applying for larger grants of up to €10 000 for exceptionally well-justified projects!
We want to foster creativity and create a culture of experimentation where the joy of learning is more important than individual success! We believe that the true impact, especially in smaller projects, arises from the fact that more and more additional student-owned sustainability actions are taking place at Aalto University.
It's time to make a lasting impact and create an even more vibrant sustainability culture at Aalto University!
Apply for the grant!
What might your action look like?
We want to support student-owned sustainability culture at Aalto, and your sustainability visions are the key to it! Your ideas could include:
- Sustainability events e.g., thematic weeks, festivals, awards, summits, hackathons, or parties
- Collaborations with other universities, schools, NGOs, or businesses
- Projects including action-oriented experiments, prototypes, or podcasts
- Artistic interventions like exhibitions, or flash mobs, drama, or other performances
- Nudges towards more sustainable behavioural patterns
- Supportive community networks to share ideas, learn, do, and be together
Or it could be something completely different: we're open to support diverse action-oriented ideas that seek to redefine sustainability, test, experiment, and/or break boundaries and spark positive change!
