Abstract
[Abstract] Universities are experiencing a transition to sustainable universities, as addressing environmental
concerns has become a cornerstone for the governance of higher education institutions. As responsible for
the formation of decision-makers and because of its duty with the society, these institutions must be in line
with the current society. This chapter deals with the implementation of sustainable procedures and
initiatives in a concrete university: the Universidade da Coruña in Spain. Great efforts have been done
regarding raising awareness on environmental issues and the implementation of sustainable procedures,
even with limited economic resources. As a result, this university is very well positioned in international
rankings and has great potential in the field of sustainable development
