Toronto Metropolitan University is committed to being champions of sustainability and a driver for positive social, economic and environmental change. That’s why we’re developing plans and taking action to create a more sustainable campus as part of our commitment to advancing the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (external link) . In order to continue our progress, it will take participation and engagement from faculty, staff and students from across our campus. Together, we can help create a more sustainable future for generations to come.
“Sustainability at TMU is not just a priority for our university, it is our responsibility to create positive change and empower our campus community to take tangible steps towards a sustainable future. Our faculty, staff and students are leading initiatives to grow our impact on sustainable development to help position TMU as a global sustainability leader in the future. While there is still more work to be done, I’m proud of what my colleagues and our TMU students have accomplished to advance the SDGs locally and globally.”
