Lead Team

These are our Lead Team members which make it happen. Lead Team is equivalent to the Vorstand or Board. We have a flexible structure to also include newcomers during the year. The three Co-Presidents are also Lead Team members.

☂️ We are an umbrella organisation. In spring every year, we organise the Sustainability Week Zurich with more than 50 events on more than five campuses. Each event is organised by students / student associations. We support & co-ordinate with the "event organisers" for many months to make the week happen. We also do year-round events on sustainability.

🌱 In October 2025, we grew from 9 to the current 13 members. Out of these, we have 3 Co-Presidents who play a supporting & co-ordinating role. New members are always welcome.
