28. Linköping University'senvironmental policy As a higher education institution, Linköping University has a responsibility to contribute to the development of a better environment and a society which is sustainable in the long-term. In order to integrate environmental considerations into the organisation, an environmental policy has been drawn up. The policy must permeate the whole organisation, which means that the organisation: • will be run taking health2 and the environment into consideration • will, by a good margin, comply with current health protection and environmental legislation • will be continuously improved in order to reduce the strain on health and the environment

29. 2 Linköping University believes that issues which affect the external environment also, in many cases, affect the internal environment and health issues. Consequently, health is included as something valuable to safeguard in the policy for environmental work which concerns the external environment. Through student education and research activities, Linköping University has a large potential to contribute towards long-term sustainable development. Therefore, students at the University will be given the opportunity and be encouraged to acquire sufficient knowledge so as to be able to contribute to environmental efforts at their future workplaces. To ensure good environmental competence, research related to the environment will be conducted and research in other areas will also be encouraged to take environmental consequences into account. Likewise, the University will contribute towards the development of knowledge about environmental issues through contacts with industry, the public sector, non-profit organisations and the general public. The University will also reduce the environmental impact of its own activities. The environmental adaptation will take place based on what is technologically feasible, economically reasonable and environmentally motivated and will 05/03/2013 DECISION Ref. no. LiU-2013-00487 comprise minimising waste and emissions, being economical with regard to resources and energy and placing environmental demands on procurement, including the planning of reconstruction work or new buildings for the University's activities.
