Sustainability

Edukatus Alliance’s sustainability work is an integral part of our business. We have three distinct target areas: learning, responsible business and environment/climate. Our learning target focuses on UN Goal 4, “good education for all”. This goal states that education is a basic human right and essential for individual prosperity, health and equality.

Being a responsible business means that we are an equal and inclusive workplace, committed to the development of our employees and our learners.

Edukatus Alliance works ceaselessly to reduce our climate footprint. One of our most significant contributions to improving the environmental is our education of future responsible citizens, equipping our employees and students with the knowledge and tools they need to create a more sustainable world both on both individual and societal levels.
