Socially Responsible Investment Officer

The ethical investment officer's job is to liaise with and assist students campaigning for ethical investment—whether organised groups (eg CSAAT, Sudan Divestment) or individuals—by providing information, resources, advice and organisational support. The EI officer is also in charge of running our Freedom Of Information survey once a year to update records on college investments, and organising events to raise awareness and keep ethical investment on the student agenda.

Ethical Consumerism Officer

The Ethical Consumerism officer runs the campaign to get university Fairtrade status, helping Green Officers and college campaigners to get information and resources on how their college can go Fairtrade. They also organise awareness-raising events, particularly during Fairtrade fortnight, to raise the profile of Fairtrade among the student body.

Ever wanted to make a difference? We're here to make being ethical fun and easy.

We're Isabel and Katharine, your CUSU ethical consumerism officers, and we're interested in Fairtrade, organic, local, veganism and vegetarianism, corporate social responsibility, sweatshop labour and climate change.

We love tea and cake, but we also want to make the world a fairer, greener place. And we think we can do this by taking small steps. There are no easy answers, but creating conversation and promoting positive action are good places to start.

Get involved with our positive procrastination breaks, get information about the stuff you buy, and get ideas about things to munch, nibble, share, debate, wear, sip and ponder at www.facebook.com/gogreenhavefu n

Our plans for Green Week 2013 include creating short films so that local businesspeople can share their stories and you can ask big companies questions about their ethical credentials. We'd also love to see more colleges going for Fairtrade College status - if you need a hand, or would like to organise a Fairtrade Formal swap, please get in touch!
