By 2030 we aim to embed sustainability across all aspects of our operation, from emissions reduction to education, research, investment and civic engagement. The event will provide an overview of the UoS Sustainability Strategic Plan, outlining its six key goals and the milestones set to achieve them. Members of the Sustainability Implementation Group, alongside senior University leaders and goal champions, will present updates on sustainability initiatives, highlight progress made, and discuss future challenges and opportunities.
