It was found that 84% of young people were worried about climate change in a recent global survey, with the majority of them feeling powerless [1].

The 1 in 5 project provides opportunities for students to be part of a collection of people working together on environment related issues- to combat these powerless feelings.

To get 1 in 5 students in their final year of their undergraduate degree to focus their work (be it a dissertation, composition, a show etc) on environmental change.

Students from all subject areas are encouraged to get involved, even if their degree isn’t related to the environment. 

Students will be a part of a group that are working together to tackle climate change- can turn some of their worries into action.

If 1 in 5 students partake, this means increased knowledge and confidence on the topic, which will cause a ripple effect onto interactions with others, leading to societal change.
