Green light to ecology: 2,000 RUDN students united in a social flashmob “Unity of color”
March 26-27, anyone could become a participant of a flash mob tying the symbolic green ribbons handed out by the action volunteers.
“Unity of color” is a flash mob designed to unite active students from different parts of the world and draw public attention to socially significant problems.
“We wanted to draw attention to the real, acute problem and through unity show that we are not indifferent. Students are interested in promoting the idea of healthy environment - separate waste collection sites for batteries and plastic covers are installed throughout the university. And while we receive a response from students, such actions like flash mobs will be supported and initiated by student self-government bodies, ”said the organizer of the flash mob, Deputy Chairman of RUDN Student Council for External and Internal Communications Anastasia Dodeltseva.
"Unity of color" is held in RUDN for the second time. The theme of the first flash mob - "We are different, but we are united." This time, the Unity of Color flash mob drew attention to a more serious problem - the problem of ecology.
On a Sunday winter day at the exhibition named “Russia” RUDN University gathered students, partners, colleagues, and organized lectures under the title “We are different! We are equal! We are together!” The event took place in Pavilion 57 on the platform of the Russian Society “Znanie”. And on this day the hall was jam-packed.
The event was attended by more than 350 students from Russia, Bahrain, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, and Tunisia. The students organized an exhibition of the fraternity, introducing the guests to national dances, treating them to Algerian coffee, Arabic sweets and talked about the culture and history of the people of the country. The week ended with a futsal tournament.
On the eve of the New Year, we are summing up the past 365 days and set new goals for the next year. Whatever we do — study, work or do research — we intend to conquer even higher peaks.
