The Rio+20 Declaration of Higher Education Institutions (HEI)
Dear colleagues,
As you may know, the EAUC has endorsed The Rio+20 Declaration of Higher Education Institutions (HEI). There is also an opportunity for individual Universities to sign up and demonstrate good practice. Many Universities across the world have already done so, but in the UK so far only Anglia Ruskin is leading the way. (Work is in progress at the University of Exeter). The organisers are hoping to collate more than a thousand commitments before the Earth Summit in June.
For those of you who are involved with the HE Treaty for Rio, this 'Declaration' is different as it is capturing commitments of individual institutions and organisations whilst the Treaty will address what we think we should do as the sector.
Please have a look at the website: http://rio20.euromed-management.com/ It also makes interesting reading what is happening at Universities across the globe.
Best wishes, Harriet
