Circle U. Climate Day

Participatory climate justice - Vienna as the Capital of Democracy 2025

“Welcome to the good future!”


The Circle U. Climate Day at the University of Vienna on June 5, 2025, was an open invitation to all participants to step into a good future. Organized by Circle U. Climate Chair Kerstin Krellenberg and her Urban Sustainability Living Lab (USLL), the event welcomed over 300 attendees in the University’s main and small ceremonial halls — making it the first Climate Day involving the Circle U. Alliance.

Initiated by the Circle U. Knowledge Hub on Climate, the event was supported by the University of Vienna’s rectorate and carried out in cooperation with the Environment and Climate Research Hub (ECH) and the University’s Children’s Office (Kinderbüro).
