Sustainability report
AUT’s inaugural Sustainability Report assesses AUT’s progress in 2020 against the targets of our Sustainability Roadmap, launched in October 2018. The roadmap sets out what AUT needs to do to achieve its sustainability mission while the Sustainability Report looks at the progress we are making towards the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and the roadmap’s targets across five themes:
- Learning and teaching
- Research
- Partnerships and community
- Leadership
- Sustainability on campus
The report shows that AUT has a network of sustainability-minded staff and students already making teaching, research and on campus contributions to climate change, biodiversity loss, waste reduction and other areas. It also highlights information gaps and areas where more progress is required.
