As a higher education institution, NVU embraces its role in fostering a culture of environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and supporting economic sustainability. By implementing and embracing sustainability principles, NVU aims to minimize its environmental footprint and enhance the well-being of society.

This Sustainability Policy serves as a guiding framework for university's efforts towards sustainable actions. The policy will evolve over time as the university adapts to emerging challenges and opportunities.

The policy was developed by the Strategic Development and Internationalization Committee of the university, with the involvement of the university community.
