CSR at the School

09 Oct 2008

Vlerick Leuven Gent Management School has taken several initiatives this year to become a more globally responsible and environmental friendly organisation. And the School’s CSR team still has plenty of ambitious plans for the future.

What kind of activities have we already undertaken?

  • All pens and bags are made of a biodegradable material such as corn
  • Plain white paper comes from a sustainable supplier
  • Colour print paper has the FSC label
  • An extensive energy audit has been carried out by Esher
  • The insulation on all piping has been replaced at the campus in Ghent
  • The windows at the back of the lounge at the Ghent campus have been replaced
  • Company bicycles for all staff that commute to work by bike (including maintenance by Trans-Fair, a sheltered workshop)
  • A carpooling system for people travelling between the Ghent and Leuven campuses
  • Folding bicycles at both campuses to take on the train
  • Pool cars by Cambio, a car-sharing system in Ghent
