Sustainability Committee Biology Department

duurzaamheid UGent

 

 

 

 

Vision and mission

With 70 new student enrolments per year and 213 staff members divided over 12 research units and 3 campuses, the Biology Department is one of the largest departments within the Science Faculty.

We argue that our efforts for a sustainable (academic) community should be proportional.
The sustainability committee of the Biology Department aims towards minimizing the ecological foot print of her students and staff members and to create an ecologically, economically and socially sustainable work- and study-landscape.

Through small, visible actions with clear impact we aim to maximally support the sustainability policy of Ghent University.


To fulfill this, the committee takes actions at local (level of research unit and department) and higher (faculty, university and association) levels.
