Sustainability Reports

This is the University of Melbourne’s first report under our new Sustainability Plan 2030, launched in May 2022. The report sets the tone for our ambitious, collaborative approach to advancing sustainability, and tells the story of how our University community mobilised for sustainability action in 2022. As we implement the Sustainability Plan 2030 over the next eight years, our reports will track progress towards achieving each of the targets set out in the plan.

We aim to provide our community with clear, honest and transparent commentary on the University’s sustainability performance. This report is informed by Reporting Principles from the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), and draws upon the draft standards on sustainability-related financial disclosures and climate- related disclosures developed by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). We will continue to evolve our approach to reporting to ensure that future reports accurately capture progress towards sustainability targets.
