The teams from Campus Experience, Sustainability and Students’ Union UCL joined forces to bring Hazaar onto the UCL campus in 2024.
Hazaar is a marketplace app at UCL just for students. Providing a digital platform that allows you to buy and sell your items from other students directly on campus - with no postage or packaging.
You meet up to deliver your items at designated ‘Hazaar drop off spaces’ on campus saving on postage and packaging, reducing the carbon footprint on campus, while also encouraging students to shop sustainable alternatives.
Hazaar is a key initiative within UCL's Sustainability Strategy: Change Possible, which promotes sustainability across our research, teaching, and operations. Through the The Loop campaign, UCL encourages a circular economy by focusing on reuse and recycling whenever possible.
