A group of enthusiastic alumni embarked on our second sustainability-themed tour on 21 June 2023. They were eager to discover the latest earth-friendly features and developments of their alma mater.
Gathered at the Alumni Atrium, the group first delved into the University’s history and evolution at the Wall of Pride. They then began their exploration for new green facilities and advancements, including the trail of lightweight, flexible PV panels, and the vibrant urban farm. They were also impressed by the PolyU GreenCoin initiative, as well as the AI-empowered digital twin optimisation project led by the Campus Facilities and Sustainability Office and the Department of Building Environment and Energy Engineering. From theory to application, all these demonstrations showcased the University’s dedication to sustainability and innovation.
Our fun did not stop there – just like the first tour, the participants took part in a tie-dye organic product DIY workshop, where they created unique pieces to take home.
This campus tour was more than just a leisurely walk. We hope that it ignited a passion for a greener lifestyle and inspired alumni to make a difference in their communities. PolyU is more than just a university that promotes academic growth; it is a community that fosters a sense of responsibility towards the environment and society.
