Ecological transformation (TREC)

The UFR Sociétés, Cultures et Langues Etrangères (SoCLE) is committed to environmental issues.

This commitment is reflected in :
  • Appointment and training of a TREC (Ecological Transformation) referent: Martine Paulicand, socle-rse@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr
  • Drafting an action plan based on the strategic priorities of the TREC master plan of theUniversité Grenoble Alpes (.pdf)
  • Setting up a TREC committee to reflect on and implement the action plan.
  • Sharing TREC information on a bulletin board on campus and via email; involving UFR staff in the TREC initiative by organizing awareness-raising workshops (climate mural, etc.)
  • Université Grenoble Alpes Alpes is keen to promote the commitment of its staff and students to ecological and societal transitions, in particular with the help of an openbadge. Have you taken part in a training course, conference, workshop, team seminar, etc. on the theme of social and environmental responsibility, and would you like to know if you are eligible for theUGA open badge?
