Towards a sustainable campus: Visions for the future of higher education:
Abstract
Since 2008 long-term agreements on energy efficiency have become effective in the Netherlands. Participating organisations of forty-six sectors have agreed with the Dutch government to make efforts to realise energy efficiency of 30 percent in the period 2005-2020 and 50 percent - as a guideline - before 2030. Higher education is represented among these sectors. To achieve the energy efficiency objectives sectors and associations of organisations have developed a sustainable vision for the sector and road maps to implement this vision. For the sector ‘higher education’ the Faculty of Architecture of Delft University of Technology has been involved in developing sustainable visions for the future campus. The resulting research project included an analysis of the higher education sector, scenario studies and strategic choices for the sustainable campus. The research contains three parts: (part I) the future of the campus, describing the higher education sector, (part II) collecting tools and measures for sustainable development and (part III) combining the components of part I and part II in future models for the sustainable campus.Date
