Centre for Sustainable Development
Our mission
Our mission is to embrace an integrated and equitable approach to teaching, research, and innovation, to co-create solutions with our global partners across academia, civil society, and the public and private sectors, to secure real world impact and to tackle the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Our guiding principles
The University’s Strategic Plan, Strathclyde 2030, puts sustainability at its heart and makes a clear commitment to deliver against the SDGs across all areas of activity, including research, teaching and operational matters.
The centre seeks to foster collaboration and equitable partnerships to ensure that no one is left behind. With this in mind, the centre will operate under a series of guiding principles:
- We will be outward-looking in all our work
- We will champion new partnership working across all society
- We will apply an integrated model to our work, combining education, research and knowledge sharing
