Sustainability

The European Commission has recognized Dortmund’s Climate City Pact. Now, a broad majority is set to bring the “Dortmund Model” to life. Fachhochschule Dortmund is supporting this effort.

Professor Dr. Christina Möller has published a new nonfiction book on social inequality and educational opportunities titled *Die Mühen des Aufstiegs*. In this interview, she explains the facts and background.

Several student teams developed new components for the “Nuevo35” research vehicle during the summer semester. These components make the prototype more sustainable, efficient, and safer.

For three days, about 60 students debated issues of peace, climate protection, and democracy: The first SQuArE World Climate Game focused on weighing options and striking a balance in international politics.

Sustainability requires the right balance, continuity, and, above all, people who bring it to life day after day. For her commitment, university student Marie Runge was awarded the Impact Cup.

Dortmund’s two major universities and the Student Services Organization invite you to attend Sustainability Week at their locations from June 22 to 25, 2026.
