In everything we do, we aim to be sustainable. To ensure this effort is realizable STAR has designed the nine “STAR Sustainable Standards”, which must be taken into account for every single event we organize.
- We do not purchase single use plastic products – SDG 12
- We offer all committees the opportunity to organise sustainable initiatives, funded by our internal Sustainability Fund
- We offer all MSCs and fulltime committees the opportunity to organise activities with NGO’s, at a cost-based rate – SDG 17
- Everyone is equal at STAR, no matter your race, sex, sexual orientation or disability – SDG 5
- We evaluate all merchandise/goodies on use and environmental impact – SDG 12
- We attempt to limit printing. If we print, we use FSC paper – SDG 12
- Meatless is the default. We do, however, provide students with the option to choose meat – SDG 12
- We provide students with the option to compensate the CO2 emissions of their flight (in collaboration with Corekees)
- We encourage the organisation of inspirational events that incorporate sustainability
