Concordia has launched its new Sustainability Action Plan!

The Sustainability Action Plan 2026 – 30 is a roadmap for advancing sustainability across campus and creating new opportunities for students to learn, get involved and put ideas into practice.

The plan brings together seven stream topics: food, waste, climate, procurement, biodiversity, research and curriculum.

From more sustainable teaching and research labs to stronger food security and enhanced campus biodiversity, the plan is shaping how sustainability takes root across Concordia.

L’Université Concordia lance son Plan d’action en matière de durabilité 2026-2030.

Le Plan d’action en matière de durabilité 2026-2030 contribue à façonner la place de la durabilité sur les campus, en créant de nouvelles possibilités pour les personnes étudiantes d’apprendre, de s’impliquer et de mettre leurs idées en pratique.

Le plan s’articule autour de sept thèmes : alimentation, déchets, climat, approvisionnement, biodiversité, recherche et curriculum.

Des laboratoires d’enseignement et de recherche plus durables à la sécurité alimentaire et à la biodiversité sur les campus, de nombreuses possibilités permettent aux personnes étudiantes d’intégrer la durabilité à leurs études, à leur vie sur le campus et à leur engagement dans la communauté.
