SEPN has analyzed and scored all 220 accredited post-secondary institutions in Canada on their uptake of four high-level Sustainability Initiatives (SI):
- Undertaking a sustainability assessment
- Signing a national or international environmental or sustainability declaration (specifically, Halifax Declaration, Talloires Declaration, Pan-Canadian Protocol, or the University and College Presidents’ Climate Change Statement of Action for Canada)
- Having a sustainability office or officer
- Having sustainability polices
An institution received one point for having a sustainability initiative in each category:
- SI score of 4: Institution had all 4 sustainability initiatives (these institution are described as “SI Leaders”)
- SI score of 3: Institution had 3 of the 4 sustainability initiatives
- SI score of 2: Institution had 2 of the 4 sustainability initiatives
