There are People & Planet groups at over 70% of UK universities and colleges. They are run by students and are the core of the People & Planet network. They campaign and raise awareness about the global issues that matter to them by having speakers, debates, quizzes, colourful demonstrations, boycotts, club nights and more… so get involved in your local group to learn about the issues, have fun and campaign for real change.
