Who we are

The Green Campus Initiative (GCI) was started in 2007 by a handful of students and staff to address issues of sustainability at UCT. This volunteer organization has now swelled to over 1000 members and has established itself as a force to be reckoned with on campus.

The GCI is fresh, dynamic and action-based. We aim to bring about lasting change and to make UCT a more environmentally-friendly institution.

On this site you can read about some of the projects that the GCI runs, including Green Week, Recycling and RideLink amongst others. You can check out some of the work we've done and find out how to get involved. We appreciate every bit of help and support we get, big and small.

In recognition of the great work it does, the GCI was awarded Team of the Year at the 2009 UCT Student Leadership Awards.
