The University has collaborated with suppliers to embed modern slavery due diligence, completed 94 independent supplier risk assessments in 6 months, trained over 18,000 community members and launched ground-breaking industry and supplier partnerships. It has also introduced a biodigester that converts 500 kilograms of waste every day, a reusable cup scheme that reduces 35,000 single-use cups each week, and secured a new contract for the University to be powered by 100 percent renewable electricity — three years earlier than planned.
