Center for a Sustainable University

The Center for a Sustainable University helps Universität Hamburg become a University for a Sustainable Future in research, teaching, education, and administration.

We propose measures for sustainable development, guide the University's sustainable transformation, initiate and foster sustainable development projects, strengthen internal and external sustainability networks, and serve as a think tank and experimental laboratory.
