Find out in Climate+ Podcast epsiode 64 with Professor Werner Lang, Vice President at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), to explore the transformative power of "living labs" in advancing campus sustainability. 

Werner shares how TUM is turning its campus into a real-world laboratory where students don't just learn about sustainability—they actively create solutions to tackle it. From shifting an entire campus away from fossil fuels to carbon neutrality in less than two years (a goal initially met with skepticism from university leadership), Werner demonstrates how embracing students as genuine contributors rather than passive learners can drive remarkable change.

This episode is essential listening for university administrators, sustainability professionals, students, and anyone interested in how educational institutions can become engines of climate innovation and systemic change.
