April 4-10, 2020
The Week of Awareness is a concept brought to you by Students for Sustainability Square, we hope that this will be the first of many awareness week events where we aim to provide, lectures, exhibits, movie screenings and fun workshops focusing on an important environmental problem. For the first awareness week, microplastics will be our theme.
Awareness week aims to provide a friendly and open platform for the entire KAUST community to be introduced to the issues linked to microplastics formation and the current research happening at KAUST and worldwide to understand and tackle the problem. We also hope this week will prompt action from the KAUST Community when it comes to single plastic use. To make this event a success we need you!
