A London university is divesting from both fossil fuel and arms companies after a year-long ‘Invest for Change’ campaign led by Royal Holloway students’ union president Maia Jarvis.
Royal Holloway announced its new investment policy on 18 July, joining the nearly two-thirds of UK universities committed to divest from fossil fuels.
Students are now demanding the university ends career pipelines into the oil, gas and mining industries.
The student union was supported by the British branch of Students Organising for Sustainability (SOS): www.sos-uk.org
