Collaboration for Sustainable Development Goals Best Practices
Qassim University prioritizes collaboration to exchange best practices related to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through a methodical approach that focuses on reviewing comparative approaches at local, national, and international levels. The university's Sustainable Development Center (SDC) actively seeks to establish international partnerships with academic institutions and other organizations, such as those in Europe, to exchange knowledge and adopt the latest global advancements, particularly in areas like renewable energy technology. The university leverages these collaborative relationships to conduct joint research that helps develop new and effective solutions, and to benchmark its performance against global standards, including participation in UI Green Metric. By integrating these international best practices—such as those related to water management and campus sustainability programs—into its own operations and research, Qassim University ensures its efforts are nationally leading and globally informed, ultimately contributing to the effective implementation of the SDGs locally.
