STRATEGIC INITIATIVE FOR CLIMATE, JUSTICE AND SUSTAINABILITY
As the new academic and intellectual home for 奶糖直播 University's commitment to sustainability, the Strategic Initiative for Climate, Justice and Sustainability (SICJS) aims to further awareness and understanding of the environmental crisis that looms before humanity and earth, finding solutions to mitigate harm and create a more just and sustainable future. The Strategic Initiative supports existing academic centers and groups within 奶糖直播 and facilitates interdisciplinary work across colleges and departments. We aim to build a university-wide institute that fosters a uniquely Augustinian and Catholic approach to climate, justice and sustainability.
The Strategic Initiative responds to Pope Francis' call to care for our common home in Laudato Si, his encyclical on the environment.
Satis, pro omnia, in sempiternum. Enough, for all, forever.
