Conclusions of Phase 1 and Phase 2 – USP Environmental Policies
• greater cohesion take place among faculty, staff, students and
stakeholders from govern and private sector, regarding sustainability
issues;
• Faculty, staff and students now have greater responsibility in their
actions related to sustainability;
• after the creation of USP's sustainability policies occurred a clearer
definition not only of the university's diagnosis, but mainly on
defining clear goals, targets and deadlines.
• Phase 3 (on going): Development of Environmental Local Plans for
each of the 11 campuses adapted to their local realities
