Our vision and aims
What sustainability means to us:
Meeting the social foundations of current and future generations while living responsibly within a healthy, natural environment.
Our vision:
Our vision is to enable individuals, communities and organisations to act towards a sustainable future through education, research and partnership. We support interdisciplinary, cross-campus and cross-sectoral solutions to climate change.
We aim to:
- Bring people, disciplines and sectors together for new insights.
- Connect academic expertise with policy, business and activism.
- Build capacity through mainstreaming sustainability education.
Our objectives are to:
- Enable the University to lead and be part of the current global movement calling for sustainable solutions across all sectors.
- Support, publicly promote, and help to coordinate the activities of staff (academic & professional) and students around sustainability.
- Leverage Scottish, UK, and International funding and multi-sector partnerships for future calls related to the climate emergency.
