Sustainability
Embedding sustainability in everything we do
At La Trobe University we work with students, staff and the community to make sustainability central to everything we do.
Sustainability in action
We help develop responsible leaders, professionals and citizens by:
- Recognising that sustainability encompasses economic, social and environmental dimensions.
- Integrating sustainability across all operations, curriculum and research.
- Embedding sustainability within the culture and practices of the University through the broadest engagement with staff, students, employers and partners in the community and government.
- Becoming known as the leading sustainable university in Australia and a leader internationally.
Sustainability Strategy
La Trobe University's Sustainability Strategy outlines how we will embed sustainability across teaching, research, operations and partnerships. Through six priority areas, it sets a clear direction for climate action, social equity and sustainable growth.
