Humber's Office of Sustainability

Humber Polytechnic's institutional value of Sustainability states "We preserve our collective future."

We lead and support Humber’s commitment to providing national leadership in developing sustainable campuses, and are a hub for campus engagement and information. We foster a culture of sustainability by leading by example: how we operate our buildings, interact with the physical environment and communities around us, and in the way we teach and learn about sustainability. By incorporating economic, social and environmental sustainability across the college, we are creating career-ready citizens for the challenges of today's world.

Take a look at our latest Sustainability Plan 2019-2024 and the Supporting Actions.

CULTURE AND COMMUNITY

Our culture and community promotes sustainable, equitable, diverse and inclusive actions of students, staff, faculty and partners.

TEACHING, LEARNING & APPLIED RESEARCH

Sustainability will be embedded into all academic program curricula to help prepare every Humber graduate to be career-ready citizens.

SUSTAINABLE OPERATIONS

All campus development and operations begin by incorporating sustainability into the design and building process and connecting our students to real-world learning opportunities.

Sustainability Trail

The Sustainability Trail is a series of plaques featuring sustainability initiatives across the North and Lakeshore campuses. The plaques raise awareness on how sustainability is embedded in campus life from operations to academic programs. Learn more about it on the Sustainability Trail webpage.
