  1. SDG 12 - Responsible consumption and production

    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.

  2. SDG 15 - Life on land

    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.

  3. SDG 10 - Reduced inequalities

    LJMU strives to enable equality for all people regardless of income, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, race, class, ethnicity, religion. Our international and collaborative research aims to give a voice to minoritised and vulnerable communities and end poor treatment of human beings. Our research extends to improving the treatment of women in African prisons and identifying disaster victims through our Face Lab.

  4. SDG 6 - Clean water and sanitation

    At LJMU, we’re making efforts to address our water usage by installing efficient water dispensers, harvesting rainwater and using low-flush toilets in our buildings across campuses. Locally, we are promoting sustainable energy on Hilbre Island and internationally we are proud to champion the voices of islanders in the Philippines through documentaries shared at the United Nations World Ocean’s Day.

  5. SDG 4 - Quality education

    LJMU have a dual focus on quality on education through curriculum delivered in Liverpool and via our external engagement activities. We have committed to feature sustainable development as part of our taught courses, and we’re making efforts to decolonise the curriculum. We’re committed to our local community, delivering training for secondary school students in climate, chemistry and astrology.
