The University of Canberra’s commitment to sustainability is grounded in a desire to serve the changing needs and challenges of our regional and globally-connected communities – students, staff, Indigenous peoples and other stakeholders – and a deep connection to our place in the Canberra region, on Ngunnawal country.
Building on UC’s ambition to become a global leader in equality of opportunity, our sustainability vision is to play our part in ensuring the vitality and resilience of all people and ecosystems in the face of uncertain futures impacted by climate change, economic disruption and rising Indigenous inequality. As the university of the nation’s capital, with world-class research in health, wellbeing and environmental resilience, we are uniquely positioned to play a leading role in enabling capacity in response to key sustainability challenges through enhanced climate resilience, community resilience and Indigenous empowerment.
