Sustainable development at UNamur
The university must set an example in terms of sustainable development in all three dimensions (economic, social, and environmental) through the way it manages its infrastructure and assets to be "sustainable in form," as well as through its commitment, as an educational and research institution, to actively contribute to environmental transition to be "sustainable in substance." All of this must be in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
