The global blueprint for a more sustainable future for all
See what we're doingEducation that instils values of sustainability
Macquarie University is committed to embedding sustainability in all our teaching programs – ensuring our students are equipped to meet the complexity and challenges of today's expectations, both in business and society.
Providing students with the opportunity to learn sustainable practices is incorporated into Objective 1.2 of the Learning and Teaching Strategic Framework 2020–2024.
This objective outlines "a distinctive Macquarie University pedagogy that nurtures and encourages students’ appreciation of Indigenous knowledge, respect for diversity and global perspectives and commitment to ethical behaviour and sustainable practices."
In committing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (2015–2030), Macquarie University seeks to align core activities of learning, teaching and research with these goals. Read more about how Macquarie is doing this.
