UC Eco-Office Programme
About the UC Eco Office Programme
Following on from a UC Summer Sustainability Scholarship project in 2008/09 (PDF 85KB), the UC Sustainability Office has developed an Eco-Office Programme to help all office users on campus make their work places more sustainable. This programme involves a network of people interested in sustainable office practice, sustainability assessment forms and a certification process so that your office can formally get on the sustainability journey.
What You Can Do:
- Read the UC Eco Office Guide (PDF 2MB), which was created in 2010 by UC office users.
- Join the UC Eco Office Network. If you are interested in joining our Eco-Office Network, please email Matt Morris, the UC Sustainability Advocate at matthew.morris@canterbury.ac.nz.
- Do the Eco Office Sustainability Assessment. The new sustainability assessment form for UC offices is now available. Download it here (PDF 522KB), fill it out and send it back via internal mail to the Sustainability Office (118 Ilam Rd).
- Get UC Eco Office Certified (see below).
