Sustainable Campus<\/span><\/h1>\n <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n \n
\n \"\" <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
\n\t
The campus is the space where part of our students' education process takes place. For this reason, it is essential that it is an example of sustainable practices, both in behavioural, technological and logistical terms. ISEG's commitment is to make our campus carbon neutral and an example of green innovation by 2050. <\/div>\n\t

Energy Efficiency<\/span><\/h2>\n

Energy efficiency on the ISEG campus refers to the rational use of energy in all areas of the campus and the adoption of measures such as the implementation of new technological solutions for monitoring consumption, more energy-efficient appliances, the use of more efficient lighting systems and changing the behaviour of members of the community in relation to energy consumption.<\/p>\n

Energy efficiency significantly reduces energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, thus contributing to environmental preservation and energy sustainability.<\/p>\n

Water Consumption<\/span><\/h2>\n

Water consumption on the ISEG campus is being optimised to promote rational use in all areas. To this end, new technological solutions are being implemented to monitor consumption, using more efficient appliances in terms of water use and encouraging a change in the behaviour of members of the community in relation to water consumption.<\/p>\n

Water efficiency significantly reduces water consumption and associated waste, thus contributing to the preservation of water resources and environmental sustainability.<\/p>\n

Sustainable Purchasing<\/span><\/h2>\n

Since 2022 ISEG adopted its Sustainable Purchasing Policy, it allows the reduction of the environmental impact of our procurement activities for goods and services.<\/strong><\/p>\n

By choosing products and services that are produced more sustainably, with recycled or renewable materials, or that have less environmental impact during their useful life we are contributing to the environment and meeting sustainability targets. We take a more conscious approach to procurement so that we can inspire other organisations to do the same and contribute to necessary changes.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t

Reduction of C02 Emissions<\/span><\/h2>\n

ISEG constantly seeks to achieve the emission targets set nationally and internationally, and also the objectives of ECO.AP 2030. The first step to start this transition was to calculate its Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and draw up an action plan to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030.<\/p>\n

For this purpose, ISEG's organisational carbon footprint was accounted for the base year 2019, and the subsequent years 2020 and 2021. The Action Plan encompasses a set of measures for the reduction of scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions and a compensation plan for the remaining emissions, and that will enable the achievement of this goal.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t

STAFF formation<\/span><\/h2>\n

This initiative aims to train our STAFF on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Our aim is to make each individual aware of their role in combating climate change and to encourage individual responsibility.<\/p>\n

We believe that an informed person has the power to make a difference. Through workshops and training, we want to enable our team to adopt sustainable practices in their daily lives and at work, promoting a positive impact on the environment and the community.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t
