Welcome to the Korean Association for |
|
Green Campus Initiative (KAGCI) |
As ¡®the Low Carbon Green Growth¡¯ has emerged as a new paradigm for a sustainable future, colleges and universities are obliged to preserve the environments of campuses and local communities, and to take a leading role in developing green technology and applying renewable energy. However, most of Korean colleges and universities had been |
|
indifferent to these imperatives while quite a few overseas universities have actively participated in green campus activities in various ways. |
KAGCI has initiated the green campus movements for domestic colleges and universities through case-study presentations and by publishing guidelines. The University Presidents¡¯ Green Campus Proclamation of May 13th, 2009 has played a pivotal role in expanding the green campus campaigns and our membership includes 40 universities and colleges throughout the nation now. |
We will strive to transform Korean colleges and universities into eco-friendly, energy-saving organizations by nurturing the green leaders and developing a standard evaluation index for green campus. |
We look forward to your active involvement and warm support. |
Thank you. |
Chairman of KAGCI |
