Public Climate School
Public climate school
From November 4th to November 8th, the Public Climate School (PCS) will be held at TUM under the motto “Climate, Education, Democracy.” This initiative is part of a Germany-wide campaign dedicated to promoting climate education and fostering sustainability in universities, schools, and across society.
At TUM, the Environmental Department of the student representation has organized a full week of lectures focusing on climate justice, sustainability, and democratic engagement. Many of these lectures are part of the regular curriculum; however, during this week, they will emphasize topics related to sustainability and climate. All these lectures will be open to all TUM students.
