Bringing sustainability to life on campus

Our Framework

Sustainability at Melbourne is governed by the University’s Sustainability Framework, comprising three elements: the Sustainability Charter, Plan and annual Report. This Framework integrates action on sustainability across all areas of institutional activity and aligns with the strategic priorities of Advancing Melbourne.

Our campuses and communities are integral to University action on sustainability under the Sustainability Framework, aiming to provide students, staff and the community with opportunities to learn, engage with and act on sustainability issues.
