In a significant move towards sustainability, Sekolah Pascasarjana Universitas Padjadjaran (SPs UNPAD) has introduced free drinking water stations across its campus. This initiative is part of the university’s comprehensive sustainability guidelines, aimed at reducing single-use plastic bottles and enhancing access to clean water for students, staff, and visitors.

The newly installed drinking fountains are strategically placed in various locations throughout the campus, ensuring that everyone has easy access to fresh and clean water. This initiative not only supports the reduction of plastic waste but also aligns with the university’s commitment to improving environmental health and sustainability.

Supporting SDGs through Sustainable Practices

This effort is in direct alignment with several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as outlined by the Times Higher Education (THE) impact indicators. Specifically, it addresses:

SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation – By providing access to free drinking water, SPs UNPAD is actively contributing to ensuring availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.

SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production – The initiative supports the reduction of plastic waste, thereby promoting sustainable consumption patterns and reducing the environmental impact of single-use plastics.

The installation of these drinking fountains is a testament to SPs UNPAD’s dedication to fostering a sustainable and environmentally conscious campus. By taking this step, the university not only addresses immediate needs but also sets an example for responsible environmental stewardship.
