The UMass Amherst Eco-Rep Program is focused on working towards environmental literacy both within the program, and on the campus at large.
Eco-Reps first build their own foundational knowledge surrounding issues of sustainability, and then explore how best to raise awareness about these issues amongst their peers. Focusing on the role and impact of the individual, Eco-Reps work to promote environmentally responsible behavior in the campus community.
Mission Statement:
The mission of the Eco-Rep Program is to foster environmental literacy within the campus community and translate that new understanding into more sustainable behavior.
