The Charter expresses a collective commitment on behalf of a large number of universities. It represents an effort to mobilize the resources of institutions of higher education to further concept and objective or sustainable development. The Charter was introduced and presented to the CRE bi-annual conference in Barcelona, in the autumn of 1993. Two years later, the document has been endorsed by the personal signature of the rectors of no less than 213 universities in Europe. 1999 - Human Rights Initiative (HRSI) was founded: The Human RightS Initiative (HRSI) is an awareness raising and capacity building organization based at Central European University (CEU). It was founded in 1999 by the students of the CEU Legal Studies Human Rights Program. HRSI's mission is to promote social engagement through awareness raising and capacity building. Our main target groups are CEU students and alumni, local and regional students, NGO staff and activists as well as local and regional NGOs. 2008 - Sustainable Development Policy approved by CEU Senate - CREO (Campus Redevelopment Office) was founded: CREOs task is the coordination of infrastructure redevelopment at CEU - CSAC (CEU Sustainability Advisory Committee) was founded: advises on strategy and actions towards the achievement of the CEU Sustainable Development Policy and fulfillment of CEU’s commitments as a signatory to the University Charter for Sustainable Development (COPERNICUS). - SCI founded by the students of the Department of Environmental Sciences and Policy

- Sarah Sustainability Office: Proposed in Tamara ’ s proposal for CEU Has been an effective strategy for many universities – Two things arise from this: showing the school is dedicated, and by having someone committed to this portfolio specifically, allowing the potential for real action to be realized in pursuit of sustainability goals Examples: U of Guelph Sustainability Office which runs campus programs such as recycling, energy and transport. University of Luxembourg – Sustainable Development Group Has members from all faculties, administration of the University, office for Infrastructure and Logistics Considers: environmental impact, social cohesion, planning inputs, integration into teaching and learning Szent István University of Gödöllő – Climate Office which has status akin to that of faculty (outside – represents the university) Gives them a degree of autonomy, can tender etc. Financially beneficial for the university – enter into agreements with private coroporations In all these examples, the Office was started after a series of various student/faculty initiatives (often disconnected) which were then consolidated into an official group. It is important the such an office has official standing at the university: autonomy and legitimacy Such an office/officer can help ensure all goals in an SD portfolio are achieved – also allows for innovation etc University of Leuphana (Germany) – school wanted EMAS and appointed an Environmental Coordinator Coursework integration: Targeting students of all disciplines For all majors E.g. the business school new head – told us that he wants to start up a ‘ clean tech ’ course CEU can be a forerunner in mainstreaming sustainability into all disciplines CEU Business School ‘ clean tech’ University of Luxembourg transdisciplinary courses, e.g. proposed new courses on “ global environmental change and what can be done about it ” and “ corporate social responsibility ” , co-lectured by teachers from different faculties Education options/outreach An option to obtain a minor, certificate or diploma in Sustainable Development (University of Luxembourg) Climate round table with experts (Szent István University of Gödöllő) Special learning centers, e.g. EcoHouse Living Learning Centre (University of Guelph)

Local travel planning for student and academic staff “ Travel planning for business” service Non-travel principle – employees are encouraged to replace travelling by telephone, video or web-based meeting where possible Free bicycle service, bicycle sharing FairAir Green Travel Program (University of Guelph) Opportunities for interaction for students with businesses - ‘business breakfasts’ (Szent István University of Gödöllő, Hungary) Recruiting students to work on environmental campaigns e.g. 10.10.10 (Szent István University of Gödöllő) Student purchasing options: Establish relationships and incentive programs for students at local businesses Free marketplace, end of year/mid semester move out swap and donation of appliances
- Logan Green Dining Includes: Waste reduction: Composting, Food Donation (to food banks and farmers), No Disposables, Waste separation, Portion control policy (tray elimination), Incentive programs Energy Efficiency: Energy Star/ Energy Labeling Up to date Freezers, Refrigerators, Cooking and Washing devices Water Use Reduction: Tray elimination, Maintenance, Upkeep Green Menus: How is food purchased and served? Vegetarian options, local and/or organic options Product sourcing: Encourage Fair trade products, Eco-friendly cleaning supplies and chemicals Establish Relationships: With local producers, farmers, and green market vendors Waste Reduction is a major facet of green dining. Waste reduction practices include: avoiding food waste, eliminating disposable plates, cups and silverware, initiating food donation programs (to both food banks and farmers), portion control through policy and elimination of trays, and establishing discount incentive programs to encourage reusable utensils (ex bring your own coffee cup), smart purchasing to minimize food waste/deterioration and excess packaging

- Lisa We forgot what we had here…..HELP Big, one time donors as well as alumni Long-term plans and strategies Determine funding sources Durable, non-toxic, local materials when possible Incorporate energy and water efficiency into building design Maximize natural lighting Green roofs Two-flush toilets Solar panels

- Lisa How was this organized? Dormitory of the University of Georgia houses 555 students: Healthy, eco-friendly furnishings Environmentally-friendly Cool Carpet TM Energy-wise building surfaces including windows and shingles Use of treated graywater (recycled water from showers, sinks and washing machines) for flushing toilets Bioretention systems located near the building to filter pollutants from and treat stormwater runoff A rainwater catchment system for water recycling Drought-tolerant landscaping How was this organized? Cornell University, the Alice H. Cook dormitory Green Roofs: Plants and grasses are grown on the roof to maximize space, provide insulation, reduce water run-off, and reduce renovation costs by protecting the building from the effects of weather. Stormwater Management: Stormwater runoff was controlled during the work to prevent sediment loss to the storm sewer.

- Natasha Finance pay-off in the long-term + environmental bonus = increase in annual funds energy efficiency as the key-message for fund-raising Student involvement What are their needs, what are their ideas regarding the goals Hands-on work: e.g. Students help to seal the buildings Benefit for PR: “day of the open university” for the public
