In this session delegates shared best practice with peers that focused on sustainability reporting in the further and higher education sector. They learned how colleges and universities in Scotland have responded to the introduction of mandatory climate change reporting for public bodies. They also discovered how institutions have approached sustainability reporting by analysing leading sustainability reports from the sector in a workshop setting. The session provided the opportunity for attendees to have an honest dialogue about the challenges and opportunities in sustainability reporting.
