This session presented the key findings of research into organisational models for whole-institution approaches to sustainability. It considered case studies from two successful approaches, in place at University of Wales Trinity St David and Macquarie University, and how these were developed. Delegates had the opportunity to participate in a discussion about what would most usefully be included in a forthcoming output aimed at guiding universities and colleges towards making changes to a similar model successfully within their own organisations.
