Preamble

The University of Dhaka (DU) is committed to promoting responsible consumption and sustainable production across its campus and affiliated facilities. Through comprehensive policies on ethical sourcing, waste management, plastic and disposable minimisation, and supplier compliance, DU ensures that all procurement and operations prioritize environmental protection, worker rights, animal welfare, local sourcing, and public health. The University has set ambitious targets, including a Zero Waste to Landfill goal by 2040, systematic waste segregation, hazardous waste tracking, and rigorous monitoring of campus-wide recycling. DU extends these principles to its supply chain and outsourced services, requiring sustainable packaging, eco-friendly practices, and adherence to ethical standards. By implementing waste tracking systems and publishing an annual Sustainability Report, the University demonstrates transparency, accountability, and progress toward SDG 12, fostering a culture of environmental stewardship, resource efficiency, and responsible consumption within both the campus and the wider community.
