Working towards a sustainable future

CUNEF Universidad is committed to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) approved by the United Nations in September 2015. These goals are at the heart of the 2030 Agenda, which seeks to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. CUNEF Universidad has in place several initiatives within 13 of the 17 goals set out by the UN, with a particular focus on SDGs 3, 4, 9 and 17, given their interconnectedness and their comprehensive coverage of well-being and health, quality education, innovation in industry and strategic alliances.

CUNEF Universidad and PRME

Principles for Responsible Management Education

In August 2020, CUNEF Universidad became a signatory of the Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME), a UN-backed initiative that has already been signed by over 800 universities and business schools worldwide. PRME has established seven principles to ensure that academic institutions provide future leaders with the skills they need to balance economic and sustainability goals, while drawing attention to the Sustainable Development Goals and aligning its members with the work of the UN Global Compact.

PRME has selected CUNEF Universidad to participate in the 2023 and 2024-2025 (biannual cycle) PRME Champions initiative. The PRME Champions are fifty higher education institutions from all over the world who will lead a series of actions meant to serve as an example of how to incorporate SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) into teaching and research.

By participating in this initiative, CUNEF Universidad strengthens its commitment to sustainability and the implementation of SDGs not only across the university community, but also on a national and international level.
