Academicians (we) are studying sustainability in businesses and we are teaching sustainability. However do our university fulfil sustainable practices ? Are we acting according to sustainable development rules?
Of course one can find numerous university sustainability reports elaborated mainly according Global Reporting Initiative.
However I am looking for another studies using different methodology of university sustainability evaluation.
I will be happy of every suggestion.
Many thanks in advance.
Sustainability refers ability to cope the dynamics of change without distraction considering future generations, Very few university are able to care the change and future. So it needs to improve
Moore, J. (2005). Seven recommendations for creating sustainability education at the university level: A guide for change agents. International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education, 6(4), 326-339.
Please check out this book which has many excellent chapters about higher education and issues of sustainability:
Arevalo, Jorge A., and Mitchell, Shelley F. (Eds.), Handbook of Sustainability in Management Education: In Search of a Multidisciplinary, Innovative and Integrated Approach, pp. 67-84. Edward Elgar Publishing, Cheltenham, UK and Northampton, MA. USA. Best wishes!
Thank you for all the answers and suggestions. I will study it carefuly.
However I would like to noticed that I search for sustainablity of the University activites rather than education in sustainablity area.
