Students as Change Agents

Students as Change Agents project brings together students, staff, and external partners to tackle real-life challenges and generate fresh thinking.

It involves students from multiple disciplines who want to make a social impact during their time at University.

The culmination of the programme in June 2020 saw 150 students taking part from across the world, working together with partner organisations to address challenges like youth homelessness in Scotland and exploring what an environmentally sustainable future might look like for Edinburgh in the revival of its tourism industry and festivals post-Covid-19.
