Make a measurable impact on climate change

Climate change continues to be the biggest challenge of our lifetime. Our decisions and actions impact future generations. We will continue to focus on climate action to protect our environment. It is a global priority.

Strategic Direction

• Use the Mohawk College Climate Action Plan and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs) as our guiding frameworks to set and achieve targets to ensure that all our work and business processes include values and behaviours of sustainability and climate change.
• Embed sustainability and climate change curriculum, applied research and capstone projects into programs that will prepare a low-carbon workforce and a transition to a low-carbon economy.
• Leverage our networks and partners, both locally and nationally, to accelerate our climate action initiatives and lead the transition to a clean economy stemming from the work developed through the Canadian Colleges for a Resilient Recovery.
• Develop a strategy to integrate Indigenous learning and practices in sustainability and climate change initiatives.
• Explore, prepare and develop programs for careers and workforce opportunities that are not fully realized.
• Launch the School of Climate Action.
