In 2010, McGill established the Sustainability Projects Fund — making it possible to support and finance sustainability initiatives led by members of the McGill community.
Not only does the fund provide opportunities for McGillians to actively engage in sustainable development projects on campus, but it also encourages individuals to be agents of change in their own study and work environment.
Over the last decade, more than 250 innovative projects have been funded. Just some examples:
-
Development of a permaculture course
-
Creation of a new full-time position, a Sustainable Procurement Officer, responsible for working on both the policy and community level to develop sustainable alternatives in the procurement process at McGill
