Student-led project brings to life a festival committed to the socio-ecological transition at the ULB

Organised mid-March at the ULB by the Students in Transition Office (SiTO), this edition of FestiJuste was a collaboration between ULB, Aix-Marseille Université (amU) and the University of Stockholm (SU). amU was represented by the La Sauce association, which aims to encourage Aix-Marseille students to develop and implement committed projects.

During the fist day of the festival, the participants had a lot of fun playing bubble football and volleyball. A tombola with lots of solidarity prizes to be won was also organised. 

On the second day, FestiJuste hosted the ‘triple arpentage’ - a collective reading of three major works on ecological and social thought.

Students mobilise for a just transition

Founded in 2021, the SiTO is a student body for mobilisation and consultation on the transition at the University which defines an annual programme of activities, surveys or actions related to the ecological transition it wishes to carry out during the academic year.

Integrating members of student circles and offices, the SiTO brings together, federates and supports students who wish to carry out sustainability projects within the ULB. It facilitates their capacity for action while raising their awareness of the complexity of sustainability issues.
