The UN Sustainable Development Goals 2030, represents a blueprint for building a sustainable and better future for our future generations to everyone and especially our generations to come.
We as an institution hold enormous potential and responsibility both to play our part in achieving SDG Goals and pave our path towards progress and sustainability.
Being central to Pakistan’s economic, cultural and society; we aimed to Build Sustainable Pakistan by Taking One Step At a Time. Standing at the intersection of the century’s worst Climate Chaos and Socioeconomic Unrest – the country is facing numerous challenges including; unprecedented floods, rapid urban growth, heat waves and entrenched inequalities. With our dedicated initiatives and projects we are doing our part in tackling such challenges and with our specialized curriculum, we are developing a fraternity of future social leaders. Beyond the campus, our regional, national and international collaborative partnerships are also key to making a significant impact to reduce inequality and addressing issues like food and water security around the world. Social justice, inclusive education, addressing inequality, environmental stewardship and resilience – integral to our mission.
Our commitment with SDG extends beyond teaching and research. We also contribute through our operations, governance, policy and practice, and through partnerships and engagement with our communities.
Working towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals
We have actively integrated the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into our overall curriculum and educational framework. Through the course Ethics and Social Responsibility, introduced in 2018, over 15,000 students from various disciplines engage in real-life problem-solving, leadership, and civic awareness community action projects. Grounded in our philanthropic tradition, this initiative aligns with our mission to nurture socially responsible global citizens.
IQRA University has been at the forefront of promoting Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) among its Students, Staff & Faculty Members. For this purpose we run a series of seminars, workshops, and training, where we provide invaluable opportunities for our community to engage with the principles of sustainability and social responsibility. We are continually making efforts to empower our students, staff, and faculty to become agents of positive change, equipped with the knowledge and skills to address global challenges.
