Standing Committees

Our Standing Committees, through the work they carry out, help build a shared vision and a strong community within our university. They serve as structures that act in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), working toward different targets, mobilizing young people, and strengthening social impact.

The SDGs are global goals adopted by United Nations member states to make the world fairer, more livable, and more sustainable by 2030. These goals are: No Poverty; Zero Hunger; Good Health and Well-Being; Quality Education; Gender Equality; Clean Water and Sanitation; Affordable and Clean Energy; Decent Work and Economic Growth; Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure; Reduced Inequalities; Sustainable Cities and Communities; Responsible Consumption and Production; Climate Action; Life Below Water; Life on Land; Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions; and Partnerships for the Goals.
