SOS-UK Invest For Change Workshop
UK universities have over £15 billion (source) that is frequently invested against the interests of students and the world they will graduate into. These investment decisions are often left to externally appointed investment managers with little engagement from the university itself.
It’s time to change this.
We're calling on universities to reform their investment practices to centre environmental and social justice solutions. We're working with students to engage their universities on this, as well as working directly with universities to lead this shift.
Universities have policies guiding the way they invest. These policies dictate how, and in what, the university invests. Policy allows students, staff and stakeholders to hold the institution to account on their commitments. This workshop will help you develop the tools to challenge and hold your university accountable to the commitments they’ve made.
