“…An HEI is a social institution that has society as its principle and its reference for norms and values. HEIs, besides reflecting the knowledge and social relations, also enable changing the ways of seeing, understanding, and producing beyond the present, with future visions and new actions [9].…”

Decarbonization in Higher Education Institutions as a Way to Achieve a Green Campus: A Literature Review

2023

Reducing the carbon footprint (CF) helps to meet the targets of the sustainable development goals (SDGs), with emphasis on SDG 13, which seeks urgent measures to combat climate change and its impacts. Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) or universities, as organizations engaged in education, research, and community service, play an important role in promoting sustainable development. Thus, HEIs are increasingly interested in practices to reduce their CF, in addition to training professionals for this worldwide need. CF reduction is a tool to assess the sustainability and decarbonization of a campus that aligns with Green Campus (GC) initiatives. The objective of this study is to carry out a literature review of the current situation of CF reduction practices in HEIs and the move toward a greener campus, identifying the main sources of emissions according to the GHG Protocol and classification by scope. This article sought to identify the HEIs/universities with already-implemented decarbonization initiatives through the elaboration of a table. This study was based on a portfolio of 33 articles published up to February 2022 that analyze the CFs of HEIs and the implementation of green initiatives. Differences were identified in the methodology and data used by each university. The results show that the main reason for this is the lack of standardization regarding the time metric (year, semester), functional unit (student, employee, area), limitation of data collection (scope 1, 2, 3), and sources of emission and emission factors, mainly about Scope 3 (sometimes not considered in the calculations). However, despite the differences, the search for standardization was observed in the studied articles, as well as the expectation of reduction in the CF of HEIs over time. It also identified the efforts of HEIs in implementing green initiatives aimed at decarbonizing their campuses. It can be concluded that the CF of HEIs requires improvements and solutions to a series of challenges, including the definition of emission sources representative of Scope 3, the creation of a robust database of emission factors, and the development of tools and methodologies—with greater standardization—that cover the needs of the type of institution globally, and that can be used comparatively as an effective model by other HEIs.

“…A qualidade acadêmica está, assim, diretamente vinculada aos seus fins sociais e democráticos e, dessa forma, deve propiciar o acesso ao conhecimento e promover, de forma efetiva, a inclusão social, compondo os ideais de uma instituição inovadora que busque propiciar uma educação de qualidade. (MORÉS, 2017). Na mesma linha: Currículos, normas, procedimentos de ensino, teorias, linguagem, materiais didáticos, processos de avaliação são, seguramente, loci das diferenças de gênero, sexualidade, etnia, classe -são constituídos por essas distinções e, ao mesmo tempo, seus produtores.…”

Trata-se da importância da reserva de vagas para travestis e transexuais nos programas de pós-graduação das instituições públicas, a partir de uma análise bibliográfica e documental jurídica, sobre a exclusão das minorias em diversos níveis de ensino. Diante da relevância da Resolução nº 54, regramento instituído pelo Conselho Universitário da Universidade Federal de Pelotas, necessária se faz que seja analisada a forma que sujeitos historicamente excluídos passam a acessar ao ensino superior e obter a continuidade da sua formação acadêmica. Assim, pretende-se responder a seguinte pergunta: De que forma as cotas para travestis e transexuais nos programas de pós-graduação torna possível o seguimento dos estudos acadêmicos desse grupo especifico? Pensa-se que a educação pode ser objeto de apropriação e emancipação. Contudo, ainda não é possível alcançar conclusões acerca do tema, mas se está a engatinhar em busca de respostas e soluções para (trans)formar os padrões institucionais.

“…Society forms the basis of the principles and references of higher education institutions (HEIs). In addition to reflecting knowledge and social relations, HEIs also make it possible to transform our perceptions and understanding beyond the present, encouraging the planning and production of new actions (Peer and Penker, 2014; Morés, 2017). All this can be realized through teaching, scientific research and projects with communities, making HEIs a pathway to sustainable development (Berchin et al , 2021).…”

Purpose This study aims to propose an integrated model involving concepts of sustainability and social innovation (SI) in higher education institutions (HEIs). Design/methodology/approach Based on a literature review, the authors were able to systematize sustainability and SI knowledge, in an integrated manner. Hence, the authors sought to develop a theoretical model that would integrate categories, indicators and sub-indicators, to review initiatives in HEIs in the sustainability and SI domains. The results indicated four major categories: mission, vision and values; curriculum; campus; and healthy environment. The integrated model was applied and validated in a Brazilian educational group, using the main corporate reports as data sources. Findings For the educational group analyzed in this study, the themes of sustainability and SI are explicitly and implicitly expressed in the mission, vision and values category. In the curriculum category, these themes are presented through the contents of cross-disciplines in all undergraduate courses, and also through outreach activities, integrating sustainability and SI in a theoretical and/or practical way. Regarding the campus category, the mention is explicit and the HEI works with initiatives aimed at achieving a “green” campus. In the healthy environment category, the educational group studied gives priority to the establishment of a safe and healthy work environment, focusing on labor rights and relations with society. Originality/value This work contributes to the advancement of research on the promotion of sustainability and SI in HEIs, proposing an innovative integrated model of analysis for the topics covered.
