Group for Environmental Management and Sustainability (GEMS)

How do we work?

GEMS is a primarily online society, aimed at online students that cannot access an ARU campus regularly. We host online events, like nature bingo and guest speakers, so our distance learners don't miss out.

Past events:

Trimester 2 23/24 - Nature Bingo / Sunflower growing competition

Trimester 1 2024/25 - Clay and pizza social event / Upcycling competition

Trimester 2 2024/2025 - Guest speaker Dr Ian Bedford / GEMS Pub Quiz Night

Trimester 2 2024/2025 - Think Global, Act local. A series of talks in collaboration with Cambridge Sustainability Society for Earth Month

Current competitions:
