Institutional Approach

BOKU's institutional focus is on soil as a natural resource, and as such, sustainability is put into practice as an institutional principle. A whole-institute, mission-led strategy for sustainability was co-produced by mapping the university community's sustainability values, and translating these into a) indicators for the university's sustainability strategy, and b) entry points for sustainability dialogue among stakeholders.
