Urgent Ecologies (UE) is an inter-curricular platform dedicated to promoting an ecological and sustainable approach across the entire academy and to collaborating with other (educational) institutions. It develops initiatives and strategies to integrate ecological thinking and action into both the curriculum and the organisation. The platform provides policy advice and initiates, supports and shares various projects, events and collaborations.
Since September 2025, Dorine van Meel has been working as a researcher at UE. Our current project coordinators are Vere van Hal and Joana Velu.
