ABOUT THE GREEN OFFICE THUAS
In April 2021 The Green Office was created to make THUAS more sustainable, more inclusive and more socially right. The Green Office's over all goal is to 'Grow Together and Make an Impact'. The Green Office is focused on creating awareness and make changes within our university by making our education, research and facilities more sustainable and futureproof. The Green Office welcomes everyone to join events and volunteer in helping shape The Hague University into becoming more sustainable and ethical. Feel free to contact us and share your ideas through our contact tab or by emailing us at greenoffice@hhs.nl
LUCITA COUTO GESTAL
Title: Lecturer/policy officer
Currently our world can feel paralyzing if you can truly grasp the complex reality we live in. Often life can feel hopeless, and it can be difficult to decide where and how to begin? This is why I started the Green Office. I wanted a way for people to get in touch and work on sustainability, social justice and inclusivity. Because doing nothing is not an option. Everybody can do something. This is what the Green office aims to do. My name is Lucita Couto Gestal. I’m a teacher at the part time program Management & Organization. I also teach Corporate Social Responsibility and am a policy officer for the SDG’s (Team?) at the university. I invite you to pitch your idea; huge policy goals or tangible small ones to us. Together we can improve education, research, or facilities of the university. Come to our Monday Meetings! We want to help you with your ideas and make an impact together. become a GO member today!

Title: Chair of Green Office/Student-assistant
Hi! I’m Jennifer and I study Industrial Engineering at THUAS Delft. During my internship I got more familiar with sustainability within organizations and this sparked my interest! When I heard about the green office I was very eager to join. With the help of the green office, the go members and everyone else who is interested we try to great awareness surrounding the three p’s and piece by piece we try to make our university a bit more sustainable.
JANETH DECIPULO-LADIA
Title: Student Assistant
My name is Janeth, I study International European Law. I started my exciting journey with the Green Office since October 2023 during the preparations for the sustainability week. Since then, I am hooked and enjoying working in making Green Office more visible in THUAS. Right now, I am managing the website and Instagram account of Green Office. I am also preparing for the 2024 Green Office activity plan and hopefully be able to contribute to drafting sustainability related policy across THUAS in the future.
