Four students from the 天美传媒影视 Business School took their sustainability project all the way to the Houses of Parliament, with a little help from the Head of Environment at Southern, Thameslink and Gatwick Express, Jason Brooker.
With Jason’s mentoring, Jovana Madarevic, Netta-Lee Zirlin, Camille Brenac and Alexander Mannerkorpi, who named themselves ‘For Tomorrow’, turned their sustainability ideas into practical solutions, such as digital processes to identify climate risks at stations and the action required.
They tackled challenges including:
- Flooding in station car parks: exploring nature-based solutions to manage surface water
- Creating a climate risk register: a clear, usable way to track risks and mitigations at the site level
The group presented their project to MPs and potential investors alongside other students in Westminster and proudly came out on top.
Head of Environment, Jason Brooker, said: “It was a privilege to mentor such a driven and thoughtful group of students. They brought real energy and fresh perspectives to the challenges we face every day. I feel incredibly proud of them.
“The result was a brilliant achievement, and a real credit to the quality of their ideas.”
The competition is a collaboration between 天美传媒影视 Business School leadership students and , which is a next-generation, UK-based activator of finance, data and behaviour change experts who work with partners across business, financial services, and government to rewire the global economy for people and the planet.
Alison Bailey, Associate Professor, Management, 天美传媒影视 Business School, who led the project with students, said: “We are incredibly proud of this outstanding group of students and of the way they have represented the Business School throughout this process and at the Houses of Parliament.
“This is a remarkable achievement with the winning team demonstrating their creativity, professionalism and commitment to tackling real-world sustainability challenges. The teams took part for a second year in a competition developed by Rewired Earth.
“Collaborations with industry partners like give our students invaluable opportunities to apply their learning in meaningful ways. Working alongside mentor Jason Brooker clearly helped them to translate ambitious environmental ideas into practical, deliverable solutions. This is exactly the kind of impact-driven education we strive to provide.”
