In the face of the global climate emergency, universities must not only be centers of knowledge, but also key drivers in advancing sustainability and resilience
On the occasion of World Environment Day, the UNESCO International Institute for Higher Education in Latin America and the Caribbean (IESALC) reaffirms its commitment to the ecological transformation of academic institutions.
In light of the global climate emergency, universities must not only be centers of knowledge but also key drivers in promoting sustainability and resilience in the region and across the globe.
“Greening higher education” goes beyond simply including environmental courses in the curriculum; it involves a systemic approach that encompasses institutional governance, sustainable campus management, applied research, and co-leadership with local communities.
