Description

The Sustainability Governance & Leadership Community of Practice connects higher education institutions dedicated to advancing sustainability through effective governance and leadership practices. This Community of Practice focuses on embedding sustainability into institutional decision-making, policies, and leadership structures to drive long-term change. Members collaborate to share strategies for fostering leadership buy-in, engaging stakeholders, and creating governance models that support sustainability at all levels. Through knowledge exchange and peer learning, participants empower their institutions to lead the way in building a sustainable future.

John is the Co-Chair of the University of Toronto’s Committee on the Environment, Climate Change, and Sustainability (CECCS), where he collaborates with Ron Saporta, the university’s Chief Operating Officer and fellow Co-Chair, to drive sustainability initiatives across the institution. Together with CECCS staff, they focus on transforming the university’s approach to sustainability in teaching, research, operations, and community engagement, with a particular emphasis on governance and leadership.

We are excited to invite ISCN members to join the Sustainability Governance & Leadership Community of Practice.
