For the fifth consecutive year, the National Union of Students has worked with the Higher Education Academy to ask students about their attitudes towards sustainable development.

The results show that 80 per cent of students have said that they want their institutions to be doing more on sustainability, and 60 per cent want to learn more about it. This year employers were asked separately about their attitudes towards sustainable development, and how much they values related skills in potential candidates.

The Executive summaries of both reports are available to view here on the Sustainability Exchange, or you can find out more here.
