OUR MISSION
The Sustainability Council creates opportunities for students to engage in sustainability education and experiential learning, while bringing academics together to advance sustainability-focused teaching and research. Through our academic leadership and participation in institutional working groups and committees, we help integrate sustainability across the institution.
The University of Alberta is a charter member of the Sustainability Tracking, Assessment and Rating System™ (STARS®).
STARS is a voluntary self-reporting framework that helps the university recognize and gauge progress towards sustainability. It is the world's most widely recognized system for post-secondary sustainability reporting.
