Kim Ceulemans’ ongoing doctoral research studies sustainability reporting in higher education institutions. Her systematic review of the literature on the topic shows that research has been done on how to assess sustainability in higher education, while the topic of sustainability reporting linked to its challenges and barriers, motivations, management practices and potential for organizational change are currently unavailable. The research seminar will present some of the current results of her research (including an exploratory survey on the topic, and an in-progress case study on sustainability reporting at UBC).

This presentation is open to the public.
