In addition to programs that serve thousands of K-12 students annually, The Cooper Center Campus Outreach Team works to integrate environmental learning into the higher education experience at the University of Arizona.
Since this project began in 2016, members of the Cooper Campus Outreach Team have been integrating The Cooper Center’s educational benefits into the University of Arizona's sustainability culture.
A Sustainability Vision For The University of Arizona
We believe the University of Arizona can fully realize its potential as a sustainable model for our local, national, and global communities when its students, faculty, and staff are willing to make ecologically sound changes at home, work, and school. Participants in our events also become wiser and more comfortable with engaging in leadership roles for important environmental issues.
As sustainability programs on campus and environmental learning programs at the Cooper Center become more connected, overall effectiveness will increase and we will inspire a greater population of the incoming and outgoing student body, faculty, staff, and even alumni to advocate for and participate in sustainable solutions and lifestyles for greater quality of life and a healthier planet.
