Student posters: The inspiration of a young generation
Everything we do today, as well as everything we do not do, influences our present lives - and our future. Hence, sustainability is of special interest to the young generation. The Holcim Foundation recognizes this, and wants to explicity include young people in its activities. The foundation asked its five partner universities to each invite five students to the Holcim Forum for Sustainable Construction.
The students have created a poster gallery that exhibits their approaches to a lasting contribution to meeting basic needs.
