Leela, a former UCL campaigner, presented PBU on the ‘Global Alliance of Universities on Climate’ stand. While Vivek spoke on a panel discussing agricultural policy.  From universities to international platforms, campaigners are driving change wherever they go.

So how does PBU make changes at Universities???🤨 Our goal is to make institutional and transformative change by campaigning for 100% plant-based catering. We have multiple strategies that are used to achieve this goal, depending on the structure of the specific university. 🏫
