Sustainability roadmap
AUT’s Sustainability Roadmap to 2025 outlines sustainability objectives, priority actions and targets across learning, research, governance, and facilities. It supports AUT’s contribution towards the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
Guardian of the roadmap: VC's Sustainability Steering Group
Launched in October 2018 by the Minister of Climate Change, the roadmap was developed by the Vice-Chancellor's Taskforce for Sustainability, with input from staff and students.
In 2021, the taskforce restructured itself as the VC’s Sustainability Steering Group and includes both academic and professional staff. The group is the guardian of the roadmap, providing advice and ensuring that progress on targets is being made, and also updating the roadmap to reflect changes in technology, policy, economy and society.
