We work on measures within the fields of education, research, and operations to give our students green expertise, find solutions to the major challenges facing society, and reduce UiO’s climate footprint.
What does sustainability mean to UiO?
Sustainable transition is about securing the basis of life for humans and other species – currently and in the future. To achieve that, we need to know the planetary boundaries and what it takes to create sustainable societies.

The Comprehensive Climate and Environmental Strategy for UiO outlines goals for education, research, communication, green campus, and organisation.
Action plan for climate and environmental work
The action plan details how we will reach our goals, and is revised annually.
