Sustainable Development Task Force

The SDTF was formed in 2021 at the direction of the chancellor, seeking input from students, faculty, and staff regarding how PASSHE could advance sustainability efforts.

The SDTF is comprised of volunteers from across the PASSHE universities who come together to provide leadership and advisement for state system initiatives related to the conservation of system resources, support of environmental, climate and social justice issues, and the preparation of students to become the next generation of thinkers, innovators, and entrepreneurs needed to help the Commonwealth face a myriad of profound environmental challenges.
