MANAGEMENT OF Sustainability in European universities ESMU – HUMANE - COPERNICUS Benchmarking PROJECT
How can the University integrate Sustainability into the management, curricula and research?
Following upon the success of its benchmarking programme on university management launched initially with the Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU), ESMU/HUMANE and COPERNICUS-CAMPUS are pleased to invite applications for this new programme.
This Benchmarking Programme offers a unique and cost effective opportunity for participating universities to compare their key management processes with those of other universities. This will help identify areas for change and assist in setting targets for improvement.
Unlike most existing benchmarking initiatives, this programme focuses on the effectiveness of university-wide processes. • It enables participants to learn from each others' experience of difficulties and successes across international boundaries. • Its mode of operation has been designed by university people solely for use in universities. • It is developmental in the sense that each year participants review the methodology and refine it further.
THE CORE VALUES OF THE PROGRAMME’S APPROACH • Non-Prescriptive • Consumer/Client Based • Leadership • Continuous Improvement • Fact Based Management • Long Term View • Plurality of Missions
Developing the Sustainability Strategy • Implementation of the Sustainability strategy • Management of Sustainability: Integrating Policies, Programs and Activities • Monitoring and Review • Future outlook and prospects
