What We Do

EAUC exists to lead and empower the post-16 education sector to embed sustainability in everything it does.

We promote holistic, whole-organisation approaches where leadership and governance, estates and operations, teaching and learning and collaborations are all actively driving sustainability so that we’re equipping learners for their lives, being responsible organisations and shaping society for the better.

We do this by:

• supporting our members to create meaningful sustainability change
• convening our network to generate solutions to shared challenges
• creating systems change to establish a more enabling environment for sustainability action. 

Our goals for 2030

We know our organisation is built on solid foundations, but we need to increase the scale and pace at which we work. We want to be more ambitious and more impactful, unleashing our potential as a catalyst of transformational change across our sector.

By 2030: 

• Our members will be achieving their ambitious sustainability goals.
• All publicly funded post-16 education organisations in the UK and the ROI will be engaged through our work.
• We will provide unparalleled expertise on sustainability in post-16 education.
• The systems and frameworks which shape post-16 education will promote and embed sustainability action.
