Together for more sustainability!

TripleN - the sustainability initiative of Montanuniversität Leoben – was created by the Sustainable Development Panel and bundles all efforts of the university to promote a sustainable development of the planet. However, as stated in SDG 17 "Partnerships for the Goals", partnerships are needed to promote and achieve sustainable development. Therefore, TripleN cooperates with these initiatives:
