Welcome to the very first "Student Reuse Day" at the University of Oslo, on Tuesday 20th August 2019.
On this day we focus on sustainability and reuse. Not only is an environment friendly life good for the future of the planet, but it's also good for the student wallet. Frederikkeplassen on campus Blindern will be filled with stands offering activities and fun competitions on the topics Food, Plastic, Clothes, Furniture and items, and Rental Services.
