Sustainability Label & Subsidy

Every year, GreenTU awards the Sustainability Label, ranking the sustainability efforts of student organisations at and around TU Delft. We also award a subsidy to help student organisations achieve sustainable solutions. Read more about these and how to apply below.

GreenTU Sustainability Label

The Sustainability Label is a checklist that can be used to measure how sustainable a student organization is. The idea arose from the acknowledgement that all parties of the university need to take action to tackle the climate crisis. As associations affiliated with the university play a big part in setting an example for the students, it is important that they also strive for a more sustainable university and thus society. If you decide to fill out the checklist and send it to GreenTU you might be awarded a label in recognition of your efforts.

GreenTU Subsidy

When a sustainable solution is sought, it can unfortunately sometimes be more expensive than the conventional alternative. To be able to omit this difference, GreenTU offers a sustainability subsidy. The goal of the program is to bridge the gap between a conventional solution and a sustainable solution. And by doing so, making the ambition to become more sustainable more accessible.

You can find examples of potential projects and detailed subsidy criteria in the Subsidy Guide document provided below. The available subsidy budget is allocated across four quarterly rounds. This means that when there is no budget remaining for the current round, organizations can submit their applications for the next round. Each organization is eligible to apply once per subsidy round and can be granted a maximum of 500 euros per application.
