Ashley Shelbrooke, HEPA and Project Specialist
The DfE have released a draft strategy for Sustainability & Climate Change; the strategy will apply to the DfE, its arms-length bodies and the education and children’s services systems in England (which includes Higher Education).
You can download a copy of the draft strategy here.
One of the core themes of the strategy is Operations & Supply Chains. You can read the detail and associated targets from page 21 of the strategy.
The Department are running consultations over the coming months, which representatives from BUFDG and HEPA have been invited to, alongside sector organisations such as the EAUC. If you have any feedback on the strategy then please do not hesitate to let Ashley know, who will ensure it is fed back to colleagues during the consultation.
