Environmental Sustainability is indelibly ingrained in the DNA of Sunway University. The university is part of an academic complex that is located on the rim of what was once a barren hole in an area of mined-out wasteland. Today, this rehabilitated mining hole is the centre of Sunway City, a smart, digital city that has expanded by adopting sustainable urbanization practices.
Sunway Group-wide Sustainability is advised by academic experts and researchers from Sunway University, particularly the Jeffrey Sachs Center on Sustainable Development.
