Erasmus University Rotterdam's Strategy 2024 focuses on making a positive impact on society. An important part of that positive impact is creating a sustainable world. We do this in the realisation that the pace at which we must help restore our environment for our own survival must be faster than we realised until recently. In the coming years, we will therefore embark on an accelerated sustainability programme.

Our students about sustainability
I think sustainability should be talked about more and there should be more access to learn about it as well

Why I’m so involved with the topic of sustainability? I find it important to make a difference in the world and achieve something

I think it’s important to learn about sustainability in every kind of education, regardless in which sector you will conduct a job in
