ISG Paris students visit Richmond for Sustainability Week
Author: Budzak Inna
Richmond American University London hosted a delegation of students from ISG Paris for a series of events at the Chiswick Park campus, as part of November’s Sustainability Week.
The International Programmes (IP) team collaborated with Professor Inma Ramos, Director of Corporate Sustainability, to welcome 38 students from our long-standing French partner institution.
Following welcome speeches and lunch, the ISG students took part in a range of activities across campus, learning about sustainability and connecting with our community.
SDG Summit Escape Room
With the help of Richmond students and members of the IP team, Professor Ramos organised an escape room based on the SDG Summit. Students assessed whether digital technologies and AI are likely to help or hinder the achievement of the SDGs. After cracking the codes and unlocking the relevant SDG targets in a very competitive game, the teams joined a debrief on AI governance. They discussed what users and AI companies should do and exchanged opinions on the topic.
Chiswick Business Park Tour
The students also enjoyed a tour of Chiswick Business Park led by Enjoy Work, with sustainability as the focus throughout. Enjoy Work representatives showed our visitors the wormeries, recycling strategy, building efficiency, beehives and biodiversity strategy.
The park’s Sustainability Club is active all year round and welcomes all members of the Richmond community to join its monthly activities.
Special thanks to Richmond’s Estates and Facilities team for their assistance and support throughout the visit.
