Green Growth Asia Foundation (FEE member in Malaysia) and FEE are co-organising the Eco-Campus International Conference 2025. This second edition will examine the transformative role of Higher Education in advancing sustainability and climate action across teaching, research, governance, operations, and community engagement. Participants will explore how whole-system approaches—spanning disciplines, sectors, and education levels—can drive meaningful progress toward ecological resilience.
Aiming to advance sustainability in higher education, this conference is supported by the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia, Ministry of Youth and Sports Malaysia, International Youth Centre, Eco-Campus Sustainability Action Nexus, Asian Development Bank, IMT-GT UNINET, and ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability. This conference also commemorates the 10th anniversary of Green Growth Asia Foundation.
The Eco-Campus programme
The Eco-Campus programme, established in 2003, currently operates in 19 countries with 214 institutions. By promoting sustainability literacy and environmental performance through a comprehensive seven-step methodology, the programme equips higher education institutions (HEIs) to address complex sustainability challenges and fosters cross-sector collaboration. FEE, as the coordinator of the Greening Education Partnership (GEP) Higher Education Group, envisions that by 2030, at least 50% of the world’s higher education institutions will be actively integrating sustainability fully embedded into their operations, including governance, teaching, research, campus infrastructure, and community outreach.
