Event overview

Sustainability Fest returns to Hanoi campus, bringing together students, staff and partners for three days of activities that encourage more conscious and sustainable everyday choices. Hosted by the Students & Education Portfolio in collaboration with the Library, Careers, Alumni & Industry Relations, Student Life, student clubs and community partners, the festival celebrates the power of reusing, sharing and giving back through practical, community-driven initiatives. This year's festival explores how small actions can contribute to a more sustainable campus community. From donating and exchanging pre-loved items to learning about circular economy initiatives and connecting with social enterprises, participants are invited to discover simple ways to reduce waste while supporting local communities.

Across the three days, participants can:

Donate clothes and accessories for the flea market
Explore the Library's Sustainability Exhibition
Join Careers, Alumni & Industry Relations on an industry visit to Vụn Art, a social enterprise creating opportunities for people with disabilities through upcycled art
Exchange pre-loved items at the Flea Market
Take part in interactive activities hosted by RMIT departments, student clubs and community partners

Activities

Flea market

Give your pre-loved clothes, books, shoes and accessories a second life. Donate your items on 15 and 16 July, then return on 17 July to exchange them for something new to you. Every exchange helps reduce waste while supporting a more circular campus community.

Sustainability exhibition

Hosted by the Library in collaboration with the Charity & Environment Club, the exhibition showcases sustainability initiatives across RMIT and highlights how students and staff can contribute to a more sustainable future.

Vụn Art interactive booth

Create, connect and compete! Make a mosaic from upcycled fabric, discover Vụn Art's inspiring mission, challenge your friends to tic-tac-toe, and stand a chance to win special gifts.
