What is the Green Office?

The Green Office serves as a coordination centre for sustainability at the University of Jena. We see ourselves as a source of ideas and bring together the relevant people and institutions within the university. We also implement our own sustainability projects. 

The Green Office is part of the Vice-Presidency for University Community and Engagement.

Who is the Green Office?

The Green Office is made up of an interdisciplinary team. It is currently headed by Claudia Hilbert: she works full-time in the Dean's Office of the Faculty of Chemistry and Earth Sciences and manages the Green Office on a part-time basis. An important pillar is the commitment of student employees. Maria Fronz has also been part of the team since October 2024: she is a research assistant in the "Thuringia teaches and learns sustainably ThüLeNa" project funded by the Carl Zeiss Foundation.
