Presentation Job Kemperman: The Green Paper: de vision of the Green Office about a sustainable university
De Green Paper is the vision document from Leiden University Green Office about the University of Tomorrow. As Green Office, we describe what needs to happen to truly become sustainable as a university. This ranges from business operations to education and research. Structural integration of sustainability within the University is crucial to prepare students and staff for the reality of today.

Liveable communities – Liveable Planet
The Liveable Planet programme is one of the eight interdisciplinary programmes that were launched at Leiden University in 2020
Leiden’s Liveable Planet programme aims to combine scientific, policy, socio-cultural and historical/archaeological research at Leiden University into coherent research with which we can tackle the major challenges of a transition to a habitable planet with ecological sustainability. The program will serve as a hub for the wide range of relevant research carried out within Leiden University and welcomes interaction with colleagues interested in contributing to the initiative within as well as outside of Leiden University.
