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.
Jeffrey Sachs Center on Sustainable Development (JSC), hosted in Sunway University, with the support of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network, is a regional center of excellence that advances SDG achievement in Malaysia and Southeast Asia.
