Xiaohongshu
Election post
We bring synergetic skills to the role: Thalia’s work within the SU gives her a strong understanding of its structures, while Moosa brings experience organising change through the Sustainability Council.
Moosa was crucial in reviving the UK Student Sustainability Council, and has worked with the banking and political taskforces giving him the perspective and experience to strengthen SusCo.
With Plant-Based Universities, Thalia has drafted Union Policy; met and talked with student and staff members of the SU; and lobbied support for increasing affordable, sustainable plant-based food.
Switch away from Barclays:
Switch UCL from Barclays, who invest heavily in fossil fuels and the arms industry; increase student awareness of environmental impacts of who they bank with.
Cheap and sustainable food:
Lower the price of sustainable food; increase cultural diversity in food options; and increase plant-based options.
Climate in the curriculum:
Integrate sustainability into course curriculums to equip students with the skills to tackle the threat that climate change poses.
Hold the Student’s Union accountable:
Be vocal and radical in meetings; and ensure Union policy is enacted.
We have clear, impact-oriented goals that we are dedicated to achieve.
Each of us brings unique, practical skills that will allow us to be effective in our goals.
We understand how to change things at UCL because of our learned experience.
As active members of sustainability organisations, we are genuinely committed to sustainability at UCL.
We are dedicated and passionate about making this university better, and it would be our honour and privilege to be given the opportunity to serve as your sustainability officers.
