Engaged and active - Students in action for sustainable development 

At the Ohm, there are many student initiatives and projects that can use this platform to introduce themselves and recruit more like-minded and engaged individuals for their efforts. They are setting an example, sharing their knowledge, and encouraging others to do the same.

Various student initiatives are presented as examples on this page in regular rotation.

Urban Gardening & Educational Research Project: “Shared responsibility in public spaces”

The Urban Gardening project is a collaborative project – from students, for everyone.  There are many new plants, a biodiverse mix of different crop and ornamental plants for humans and animals. Hops are one, and so are strawberries, mint, various vegetables, and many herbs that, of course, have found a spot in herb spirals or in raised beds. When everything has grown and has fruited, we can mindfully harvest together! The plants are there for everyone. The Urban Gardening project is about more than just planting beds. It’s about quality of life, networking, social gardening, and shared responsibility.

Swap shop

The SW student body has set up a swap shop. Anyone who wants to participate can exchange, give away, or take used clothes or books. “Pass it on instead of tossing it” is the motto. Every product that is not produced new, but can find another use, conserves valuable resources. 

The swap shop is on the 4.OG in the BL Building.
