On a similar note, the university established the Office of Sustainability in 2018 to pave the way for a greener tomorrow by spearheading initiatives across various
domains such as environment, society, and economy. As a proud member of the International Sustainable Campus Network (ISCN) and the UAE Universities Climate
Network (UCN), AU aligns its efforts with internationally recognized best practices in environmental stewardship and climate action. These memberships enable the
university to collaborate with institutions worldwide, exchange innovative solutions, and drive impactful sustainability initiatives. On the other hand, societal initiatives
aim to integrate sustainability principles into teaching and learning, empowering future generations while fostering a culture of sustainability within the campus. Finally,
economic endeavours seek to create cutting-edge sustainable solutions through research, while advancing practices that promote a healthy and prosperous future.
Through such trailblazing initiatives, AU continues to uphold the humanitarian ethos that forms the organisation’s foundational values and reflects the ambitious vision
of sustainable transformation at a national level.

In addition to being a centre of educational excellence, Ajman University is a beacon of the UAE’s commitment to community engagement and social upliftment. The
university harmonises the dual aspects of education and community building, as it drives positive social change, reinforcing Sheikh Zayed’s legacy of compassion and
progress.
