"Our Earth.
Beautiful, full of life and indispensable. A system that is home to plants, animals and people. Its soil, its water, its air vitalizes. Its resources can sustain all living things. But its bounty has been abused. We have upset its fragile balance. We take from it more than it can replace on its own. We must change that!"

The Challenge Day filled the Chancellery building with great fun on 31st May 2023. Enthusiastic colleagues opted for early morning exercise and were rewarded with a cheerful mood and a delicious apple. The refreshing taste and nutrient-rich composition of the apples revitalized the employees, allowing them to start the day with more energy, while at the same time, by avoiding the elevator and giving preference to unused energy, they contributed to the sustainability efforts of the University of Pécs, as every green step counts!
