This week (10-16 March) is One World Week! This is our annual celebration of the diversity of cultures in our community here at Sussex.

One World Week is run collaboratively by the Students’ Union and the University of Sussex, and aims to share cultures, raise awareness of global issues and highlight international opportunities for our diverse Sussex community.

This week is an opportunity to engage, educate and entertain – from raising awareness of global concerns, to sharing foods from around the world and celebrating cultural festivals, One World Week showcases the best of our campus community spirit and events are open to all students.
