Awards and campaigns
On the way to more sustainability, the Studierendenwerk's canteen has already been awarded for a number of measures:
- Every year, the animal rights organisation PETA awards the canteens stars for a vegan-friendly choice of food.
- Darmstadt's Mayor Jochen Partsch, patron of the initiative "Darmstadt enjoys fair", visited the Lichtwiese canteen in August 2015 and awarded the Studierendenwerk.
- The Studierendenwerk Darmstadt has been certified according to the EU organic standard since 2007.
