UN sustainable development goal: Reduced inequalities

The University of Vaasa is dedicated to reducing global inequality. One way to accomplish this is through research and education on good governance. Another essential strategy to lessen inequities is to conduct research on equity concerns surrounding the energy transition. Communication sciences investigate concepts and terminology from a variety of domains. Concepts and terminology are necessary to structure, clarify, and enhance communication, thereby facilitating mutual understanding. Understanding is one of the necessary factors in reducing inequality.

Everyone in an equal studying and working community can work without facing discrimination due to their gender, gender identity, gender expression, or any other personal characteristic. The University of Vaasa's equality plan and non-discrimination strategy includes both actions to promote gender equality and those required by the Non-Discrimination Act.

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.
