UN sustainable development goal: Climate action
Research and instruction at the University of Vaasa assist individuals and organisations in making more environmentally responsible decisions, such as reducing energy consumption, selecting environmentally favourable products, and opting for public transportation. For instance, research and instruction in public management examine the significance of informed decision-making for planning and implementing climate action. Additionally, research assists in identifying vulnerable populations and ensuring that climate action is equitable and responsive to the requirements of all.

UN's Sustainable Development Goals
Humanity faces significant challenges because of its own actions. The UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development addresses these challenges with a lofty objective: to place global development on a path to ensure human well-being and human rights, economic prosperity, and social stability in an environmentally sustainable manner. These are the challenges that the University of Vaasa is also addressing. Click on the icons below to see examples of our sustainability work.
