Doctoral School Sustainable Development II - Sustainable University – The potential of sustainability projects to foster organizational change towards sustainable universities
Abstract
The transition to a sustainable society implies universities that set sustainability as guiding theme of top priority throughout the whole academic context, from education to campus operations. However, in the past universities often did not act as innovators for sustainable development, but in contrast proved as rigid and resistant to much-needed changes. The transformation towards sustainable universities thus poses the biggest challenge in the university development of the early 21st century. The aim of the research project is to initiate organizational learning through the implementation and evaluation of diffusion projects and to determine the suitability of projects to promote organizational change. Thus, factors for successful intervention strategies for operational change processes towards sustainability can be retrospectively identified.
