The Università Mediterranea joins the national Light Up Less initiative.

This year, the Università Mediterranea is participating in "M'illumino di Meno", I Light Up Less,  the national initiative dedicated to energy saving and sustainable lifestyles promoted by the Rai Radio2 program "Caterpillar." The initiative represents a symbolic and concrete opportunity to raise awareness among the academic community and the local community about environmental sustainability and reducing energy waste.

On February 16th, the University will participate by turning off the lights in the Rector's Office from 6:30 PM to 10:30 PM, a symbolic gesture aimed at drawing attention to the importance of responsible behavior and our shared commitment to protecting the environment.

" Participation in M'illumino di Meno ," stated Rector Professor Giuseppe Zimbalatti, " represents a concrete sign of the attention our University dedicates to sustainability and ecological transition. Even a symbolic gesture, such as turning off the lights in an institutional building, can help raise awareness and encourage more responsible daily choices by the entire academic community and citizens ."

The initiative is part of the University's broader commitment to promoting sustainable development models, including through participation in the Network of Universities for Sustainable Development (RUS). "Through concrete actions and awareness-raising initiatives ," emphasizes Professor Marina Mistretta, the University's Delegate to the RUS, " we intend to strengthen a culture of sustainability that begins at the University and engages the entire community. M'illumino di Meno is a valuable opportunity to remember how small collective gestures can generate a significant impact ."

With this membership, the University renews its commitment to promoting good environmental practices and invites students, faculty, and administrative staff to actively participate by adopting virtuous and conscious behavior in their daily lives.
