Sustainability

Who works for sustainability at the UdG?

The Area of Sustainability of the Social Commitment Unit is responsible for the ongoing implementation, development, monitoring and review of the UdG's Strategic Greening Plan. The Area adopts the goals, sub-goals and initiatives set out in the UdG’s Greening Plan, approved by the Governing Council on 30 September 2021.

In order to safeguard its singularity, the Area of Sustainability, is also:

  • a university-scale entity for implementing political guidelines.
  • A management, coordination and dissemination entity for greening within the university area.
  • An entity for implementing the UdG’s environmental research activities associated with the Greening Plan.

Functions

The functions of the Sustainability Area derive from the implementation, monitoring and review of the strategic greening plan, and are organised into six main strategic lines :
