BHOS conducts activities aimed at promoting UN Sustainable Development Goals

Student Clubs of Baku Higher Oil School (BHOS) have organized a number of events to promote the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

 

Thus, a regular environmental action dedicated to the Green World Solidarity Year was held at BHOS. The purpose of the action, which took place under the slogan “Let's be united in the protection of nature!”, was to promote environmental cleanliness through paper recycling, tree planting and zero waste principles. Head of Book Club Rena Rasulzade, a third-year student of Process Automation Engineering Department, and members of Book Club Khumar Taghizade, a fourth-year student of Petroleum Engineering Department, and Sakina Agayeva, a second-year student of Process Automation Engineering Department, played an important role in the organization and implementation of this initiative.

The "Wearable Art" project was organized by the Art Club. Within the project, which was dedicated to the Green World Solidarity Year and COP-29, the students demonstrated their painting skills.

An event titled “Unleash Your Skills Towards a Green Future!” was organized jointly by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE BHOS) and the GERB group.  The participants of the event were provided with information about the renewable energy policy and the work done in this area. Students from the French-Azerbaijani University (UFAZ) and Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University (ASOIU) also attended the event.

 

The animation film "WALL-E" was screened by the Cinema Club. The film was met with great interest by BHOS students. The goal was to educate students and instill in them a sense of environmental responsibility. The Cinema Club carries out a social and educational mission and presents films of various genres.

Our students regularly visit animal shelters and provide medical and food aid to them. Another such action was organized by SPE and ACC clubs. Thus, about 20 BHOS students visited the Buzovna Shelter and delivered food and medicine for the animals.

An event on “The fight against drug addiction” was held at BHOS. BHOS Vice-Rector for General Affairs Babek Mammadov said that continuous educational measures are being held in this area to protect young people from harmful habits.  He advised students to stay away from drugs, which are the scourge of the century.

 

Then Senior Advisor of the State Commission for Combating Drug Addiction and Illegal Trafficking of Narcotics Vasif Guliyev and Chair of the "Youth against Drug Addiction" Public Union Bullur Mammadova spoke on the topic. They called on everyone to be active in the fight against drugs and psychotropic substances. In the end, the students’ questions were answered.
