Where thinking is inspired by nature: Sustainability is the guiding principle of University of Klagenfurt

100,000 square metres – that’s the size of the campus of the University of Klagenfurt near Lake Wörthersee in Austria’s southernmost city. More than half of this is undeveloped space which serves as verdant parkland welcoming students and staff. The natural beauty of the campus offers ample inspiration for creative, innovative and audacious research on the pivotal topic of the future: digitalisation! Founded as recently as 2019, the Digital Age Research Centre (D^!ARC) draws together researchers from the fields of computational linguistics, cybersecurity and digital culture for the purpose of contributing to the digital transformation. A constant focus in this endeavour: Digital transformation can only succeed with the careful stewardship of natural resources in a green future.

Pflanzentauschbörse am Uni-Campus

Am 7. Mai 2019 wird vom ÖH-Unigarteam eine Pflanzentauschbörse zwischen 11 und 17 Uhr direkt am ÖH-Unigarten (hinter Hörsaal A) angeboten. Dort werden vorgezogene Pflanzen zum Tauschen angeboten. Ziel der Pflanzentauschbörse ist es die Biodiversität zu fördern und einen Erfahrungsaustausch zwischen interessierten Hobby-GärtnerInnen und denen die es noch werden möchten zu ermöglichen. Wer keine eigenen Jungpflanzen hat, ist trotzdem herzlich eingeladen, an der Tauschbörse teilzunehmen, Erfahrungen auszutauschen, sich am Buffet zu laben und gegen eine freiwillige Spende auch ohne Tausch Jungpflanzen mitzunehmen.
