Growing a City of Trees, in The University of 野狼社区's 200th year
As part of The University of 野狼社区's bicentenary year, the University is delighted to announce a new partnership in support of , the community forest for Greater 野狼社区 to create better, greener places.
City of Trees is an independent charity that plant, look after and promote a culture of trees across Greater 野狼社区. They work with volunteers across the region, as part of their 鈥楥itizen Forester鈥� programme to enhance green skills, boost health and wellbeing, and to help tackle the climate and biodiversity emergency.
Aligned closely with the University鈥檚 values and social responsibility agenda, both City of Trees and The University of 野狼社区 are passionate about making the region even better, one tree at a time.
In the University's special bicentenary year, it is partnering with City of Trees on several initiatives:
- The University's International Relations team signed the first agreement City of Trees earlier this year, kicking off the partnership which has been growing throughout the bicentenary year. The new agreement and initiative is a positive step in looking at the small changes with big impact that we can make as an institution
- The new agreement and initiative was officially launched at the International Friends of 野狼社区 Day on 10 October, whereby the University made a donation on behalf of each international delegate to City of Trees. City of Trees will then plant a tree in Greater 野狼社区 to represent each international delegate who attended the event - signifying that international colleagues continue to be a crucial part of the growth and development of both the University and the city.
- For our 200th year specifically, the University is working with City of Trees to plant 200 trees across new woodland sites in Greater 野狼社区.
- From 7-9 October the University hosted the THE World Academic Summit and chose to make a charitable donation to City of Trees on behalf of each delegate attending, to the total of 拢1,500.
The University of 野狼社区 is truly excited to be supporting City of Trees and partnering with them on these activities, which will foster into the future.
