In 2022, we joined the UNILEAD (University Leaders in SDG) project, which brings together 24 public universities from across the Czech Republic. The goal of this project is to share experiences and inspire each other in implementing sustainable development principles into the daily operations of our institutions.
Our university actively participated in developing strategies focused on smart energy management and responsible procurement, particularly in public tenders. We contributed to creating practical recommendations and best practices that help other universities optimize their operations and move towards sustainability.
The results of our work, including useful recommendations, can be found on the website of Masaryk University, which coordinates the UNILEAD project. Through this project, we aim not only to contribute to a more sustainable operation of our university but also to inspire other institutions to take similar steps.
Although the UNILEAD project has officially concluded, our collaboration with other universities continues. Sharing ideas, experiences, and innovations in the field of sustainability remains essential to us.
