For NISF, kids designed Marine Beach Clean board games @UlsterMuseum in partnership with @future_island_! Kids enjoyed the Plastic Soup exhibit, learned about marine plastics and discovered that for every step they take on the beach, they step over 5 plastic pieces!
@QUBelfast Master’s and BSc Architecture students, led by FII project academics, developed design projects responding to Green Transition challenges. Using Rathlin as a lens, they tackled sustainability, climate emergency & societal issues. Virtual Show: bit.ly/4cqGe9M
Coleraine Campus hosted a special graduation day for all 146 students, marking the official completion of AoC Phase III. Special guest, Nicola Lappin, the project’s funder and Chair of the NIHE, welcomed the students with a poignant and stirring speech. @nihecommunity #WeAreUU
This year each school also participated in creating wonderful graffiti walls over six weeks to express their thoughts & concerns about the environment, but with each issue came the children's effective ideas, such as how to protect wildlife. @nihecommunity @UlsterUni #WeAreUU
146 students recently concluded their AoC workshops with a fun biodiversity trip to Glenmona House & Downhill Forest. They investigated a 'Murder Bird Mystery Hunt' & played a sea-themed parachute game about plastic pollution. @nihecommunity @UlsterUni
‘Architects of Change’ has had a great year of forging new connections with local primary schools across the north coast region. Mr Jonny Doey from Ballysally Primary School, Coleraine, immediately understood the impact the project would have. #WeAreUU | @nihecommunity
Graduation day in Coleraine for 160 north coast KS2 pupils on our brilliant environmental educational initiative Architects of Change. Great hats! @UlsterUni @nihecommunity

Why is the world afraid of long grass/meadows? For those adopting a #NoMowSummer, I applaud you👏 You are setting the standard & 100% helping your local wildlife. Since we are no longer in May, I’m conscious the mowers are being dusted off, so I’d just like to say #JuneIsTooSoon
The Architects of Change project has been collaborating with the Green Transitions Ecosystems research project ‘Future Island-Island' since November last year and have had the opportunity to expand across the north coast region with primary schools taking part. #WeAreUU

These Tree bumblebees are fanning their nest to keep it cool 🌡️ Most UK bumblebees nest on or underground. Tree bumblebees, however, prefer to nest high above the ground – bird boxes containing old bird nests are a firm favourite 🐦 Have you spotted a Tree bumblebee nest?
