The University of Hong Kong's Sustainable Development

The University of Hong Kong (UHK), is amongst the greenest schools in Asia. UHK is an early signer of the Talloires Declaration and a national sustainability leader.

The school started aggressively pursuing energy-saving policies in 1990 and as a consequence has significantly reduced its CO2 footprint. Its new Centennial campus is on track for LEED certification and will have its own metro stop to help make it a car-free campus.

The University of Hong Kong, in association with The International Sustainable Development Research Society (ISDRS) and ERP Environment, publishers of the international journal Sustainable Development, held the 16th Annual International Sustainable Development Research Conference in Hong Kong between 30 May – 1 June 2010.

The 2010 conference focused on exploring opportunities and managing implications for post-financial crisis in the pursuit of sustainability. They addressed integrated policies, cross-sectoral governance and issues concerning climate change as they relate to sustainable development and the innovations and practical measures addressing global challenges.
