Resource sharing

Background

KTH has a magnitude of resources right from physical resources such as study spaces, microwaves, sports equipment, cutlery used by different student organisations to non-physical resources such as skills and knowledge which can be shared among the student community. Our aim is to facilitate this exchange of resources so that students can make the most use of resources at their disposal and unnecessary consumption is reduced.

The resource sharing group was formed as an outcome of a workshop conducted by the Student Sustainability Council for building a resource sharing scheme in November, 2019.

Developing a Smart Map for KTH

One of our focus projects currently is to develop a ‘Smart Map' for KTH such as the ‘SmartaKartan' created in the city of Gothenburg! This map will collate all the relevant sharing-projects and activities on campus as well as around our neighborhoods and provide students with useful information about where and how they can find shared resources easily.
