A Guide for Members of Governing Bodies

Sustainability is key to institutional success over the long-term.

As the business sector has shown, sustainability provides exciting opportunities for value creation and risk mitigation.

These opportunities are becoming increasingly apparent to higher education institutions, as universities look for ways to increase financial resilience in a changing global market and policy landscape.

Now, more than ever, with adoption of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (6), universities that embrace sustainability can reap the benefits of balancing their financial health with wider social and environmental interests.

Students, staff and local communities are looking to universities to behave in a socially responsible and sustainable manner.

Bringing it all together

Leading organisations from across the further and higher education sector have joined forces to create the Sustainability Exchange. Combining resources and experience from top sustainable development and education bodies, the Sustainability Exchange is the number one resource for sustainability in UK tertiary education sharing a wealth of information that is available to everyone.

The Sustainability Exchange would not be possible without our Partners. They represent the leading organisations from across the UK further and higher education sector. Combining resources and experience from these bodies, the Sustainability Exchange pioneers the UK’s number one centralised sustainability information portal for tertiary education.

Our list of Partners will continue to grow meaning that the Sustainability Exchange will evolve tremendously over the coming months and years.
