Enhancing SDG Literacy through Green Building Education - Lessons from Multiple Green Nudges: Intersections of Sustainable Education Infrastructure

Abstract

The study assesses the University wide implementations of SDG’s with respect to the book of green Nudges by UNEP. Existing Nudges at the University of Calgary main campus are identified and assessed with respect to the extent of their impact on influencing campus community behaviour and decision-making towards resource utilization. This includes campus-wide actions under each SDG category involving architecture design, default setting, social influence and edcuational campagins. These “green nudges” implemented to promote SDG’s on campus are intended to instill environmental values to last a lifetime.
