On Monday, 30 June 2025, a meeting of the UNIgreen Team was held in the conference room of the Main Library Building at SGGW to take stock of progress, plan the next steps and outline current challenges.

One of the highlights of the meeting was the official opening of the UNIgreen Office at SGGW, which took place in the hall of the Main Library Building. Speeches by university authorities’ and project team representatives accompanied the symbolic unveiling of the logotype.

Dr Marta Mendel, Prof. SGGW, Vice-Rector for Internationalisation, emphasised the importance of SGGW’s participation in the alliance.

UNIgreen gives us a real influence on shaping the future of European higher education. Thanks to this project, we are developing joint study programmes and strengthening the university’s research potential. This is not just formal cooperation – these are concrete tools our students and staff can use today. – said Prof. Mendel.

The floor was also taken by Karol Chrobak, PhD, UNIgreen coordinator at SGGW, who pointed out –

The opening of the UNIgreen office is an essential and symbolic organisational step. It is a point where all those involved in the project can count on support, information and cooperation. We are glad that SGGW is so actively involved in creating this European network. I invite you all to visit this place and join us in working together for development. – Professor Chrobak concluded.

In the evening, a banquet was held at the ‘Limba’ Student House for all those involved in implementing UNIgreen. It was an opportunity for informal talks, strengthening relations, and integrating the team to implement the project of a transnational character. The meeting and the accompanying events were not only a substantive summary of activities, but also another stage in strengthening the involvement of the SGGW academic community in an international partnership, which translates into concrete opportunities for development, exchange of experience and improvement of the quality of education.
