Sustainability strategy
Sustainability leadership is a strategic priority for Monash. As we continue to invest in our campuses, sustainability is a key component to ensure we reduce the environmental impact of our operations and establish our campuses as exemplars of environmental best practice.

Net Zero
We understand that the future of energy is renewable. That's why we're undertaking an energy revolution across our University to transform the way we purchase, generate and use energy.

Mobility as a service
The future of travel to, within and from Monash's campuses is sustainable, autonomous, convenient and community oriented. We want low-impact, efficient and pedestrian friendly campuses which are international destinations for education and research.

Building sustainability
To prepare ourselves for the move to 100 per cent renewable energy, we're rethinking the design of our new buildings and retro-fitting our old to be state-of-the-art spaces for comfort and performance.

Urban ecosystems: Thriving habitats
In the face of climate unpredictability and increasing extreme weather events, we're redesigning our campus landscapes to be adaptable and sustainable ecosystems, equipped to thrive into the future.

Towards zero waste
To implement meaningful lasting change across our organisation, we're also rewriting the rules around procurement of goods and services, and reaching out to our suppliers and campus retailers to encourage them to join our movement.

Engagement for change
By equipping the Monash community with the skills and knowledge to become change makers, we’ll create an impact well beyond our campuses.

Transitioning to a circular economy
Our sustainability strategy is based on the circular economy framework.
