Environment and sustainability

Here at CCCU, sustainability is embedded in everything we do.

With one of our values highlighting our commitment to uphold a sustainable and ethical ethos, sustainability continues to weave through the fabric of our institution.

We’re a university that believes in sustainable futures, for both our current and future student body. We are passionate about championing sustainable futures and empower our students, staff and alumni to advocate for sustainability throughout their daily lives.

How are we doing this?

Firstly, we align our goals with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which is adopted by all United Nations Member States. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which we follow in support of ending poverty and global warming, as well as improving health and education, and reducing inequality.

What are we doing to achieve this?

There’s always something happening at CCCU. From launching the Academy of Sustainable Futures to embedding sustainability in every subject area, sustainability is embedded in our culture, curriculum and collaboration with other organisations outside of the University.
