At LJMU we’re changing the way we consume and produce goods to ensure an increased focus on sustainability. The concept of sustainability has influenced our curriculum, with students having the opportunity to learn about sustainable production in existing modules. Our research and knowledge exchange efforts have also helped to revolutionise material production as far afield as Bangladesh and the Philippines.
We are making strides to investigate affordable and clean energy solutions, and this is reflected across our teaching, research and knowledge exchange activities. We have forged partnerships with industry to test and develop new technologies such as biogas production, we are exploring green technologies through our exemplar houses, and we are working in Japan and Malaysia to ensure electric vehicles (EVs) remain low-carbon cars.
LJMU is committed to creating peaceful and inclusive societies. On campus, we support Armed Forces Day and we’re recognised under the Ministry of Defence’s Employer Recognition Scheme. Locally, we’ve partnered with the Merseyside Police, raising the standard of policing in Merseyside. Nationally, LJMU AI researchers helped to solve murder case using a deep learning method originally developed for eco-conservation.
LJMU is working to promote sustainable, and equitable, economic growth. Through our work with businesses across the region, we’re supporting innovation to create low carbon goods, processes and services with international reach. On campus, our Accounting, Business and Law Clinics are providing students with valuable work experience while supporting the productivity of the wider community.
The Teaching and Learning Academy leads the development of teaching practice and enhances the learning experience of our students.

Many LJMU projects focus on protecting Life on Land. For example, we’ve applied ground-breaking artificial intelligence technology to promoting wildlife conservation and we’ve led international research projects to protect endangered species in Indonesia. On campus, we’re creating green spaces for staff and students. Across the Liverpool City Region, we’re working with local authorities to put nature at the heart of city planning.
