The mission of the Risk Reduction group at the University of Namur is to support student actions that promote health on campus and help reduce risks in festive environments.

Active since 2017, the RdR puts student collectives with projects in touch with grassroots associations and members of staff from the Vie de la Communauté Universitaire (VéCU) department, favoring a horizontal partnership.

The RoR works with the idea that students are crucial partners in identifying their needs, designing effective actions and raising awareness among their peers.
