Sustainability week Lausanne: 2026 Edition
Sustainability Week is the biggest student sustainability project in Switzerland. It takes place every spring semester on the UNIL-EPFL campuses and in more than 20 Swiss universities and colleges.
The aim of the week is to raise students’ awareness of sustainability and ecological issues. Through its engaging and entertaining presentation, it provides tools for understanding the social, economic and ecological issues at stake, as well as giving pointers on how to take action.
During this week, many workshops, talks, exhibitions and concerts will take place on both UNIL and EPFL campuses.
All these activities are open to all in order to foster reflection and exchange around sustainability issues in the whole campus community.
If you are interested on helping us during the week, you can join the staff team through this link!!! 🙂
During the sustainability week, you can borrow books linked to the themes of sustainability. The library “Unithèque” on Unil’s campus has most of them. Follow this link to see the selection (mostly in french).

Sustainability Week is organised by Unipoly. Here are a few principles that we feel are important to us:
- Our events are open to all, free or at open pricing.
- Aperitifs at events are entirely vegetarian or vegan.
- Guests can’t take the plane to speak at our events.
- We refuse to give an advertising or consumerist dimension to our events and other activities.
