Staff engagement

Understanding sustainability 

All staff members are provided with training, resources and access to events to enrich their understanding of sustainability:

• Staff induction training includes information on the University's sustainability policies and provides resources to support learning and understanding of sustainability.
• Our online 'Introduction to Sustainability' mini-module enhances learning taken from staff inductions, and provides an opportunity to further develop knowledge.
• Research events and opportunities from the Institute for Sustainability allow all members from across the University to share their ideas and sustainable research. 

Get involved

The University not only supports staff to understand sustainability, but also empowers them to take climate action:

• Staff from across the University are actively involved with Green Impact & LEAF - programmes that provide departments with a structure to work towards more sustainable practices.
• Staff have the opportunity to feedback on sustainable progress at the University through termly sustainability assemblies.
• Various staff-led groups have been set up across the University to tackle sustainable issues: ranging from gender equality to improving biodiversity on site for hedgehogs and local wildlife.
