Understanding the global impact of Worcester Polytechnic Institute through the lens of the UN Sustainable Development Goals
Público DepositedThe United Nations has set forth a set of sustainable development goals (SDGs) to address some of the most pressing social, environmental, and political challenges of our time. SDG 6 prioritizes clean water conservation and envisions worldwide access to clean water for all. This study focused on the water conservation practices and attitudes among Worcester Polytechnic Institute students, staff, and faculty. The methodology of this project included creating surveys for the WPI community on water conservation, interviewing experts with knowledge on the topic of sustainable water use, and analyzing data on water consumption on campus. These methods helped the research team to understand what practices and methods affect students' behavior regarding water conservation. Moreover, this study will help inform possible activities and methods that could save more water on WPI’s campus.
