UNIL and sustainability
Did you know that the Dorigny campus is certified « 2000 watts in transformation » ? This distinction granted by the Federal Office of Energy after an accreditation and audit process validates the efforts made by UNIL, as well as its plans to continue to make the Dorigny campus a pioneering site.
According to a classification carried out by the WWF, which took into account 28 Swiss universities, UNIL is in second place in terms of sustainability.
Aujourd’hui :
- All of the electricity used on campus comes from sustainable and local sources.
- In our parks and gardens, no chemicals are used.
- Our 77 hectares of green spaces not only welcome the sheep, but also the Ferme de Bassenges team who is currently carrying out a diversified agriculture project including market gardening, livestock farming, and agroforestry – association of arboriculture and field crops.
- And much more! https://www.unil.ch/durable/engagements
