INTRODUCTION

    In 2015, world leaders agreed to both the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and to the new climate change accord in Paris at COP 21. These milestones give cause for reflection on the role of universities, and in particular how the UiTM might contribute to the pressing global priorities of SDG. The initiatives on the sustainability have been started few years back in UiTM however the efforts is not well driven until the establishment of sustainability committee in 2018. The official launching of Greenation@UiTM is the mark of the new era for the sustainability agenda in UiTM. The core function of this committee is to engage and synergize the effort of all the stakeholders towards achieving world class sustainable best practices. This in turn will cultivate culture and awareness among UiTM community in emphasizing their roles and contribution on the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) which will address the core sustainability components including economic, environment and social.
    By the nature of university which is focused on research, innovate teaching and service as well as serving the community, we are willing and responsible to take the lead in creating a more sustainable tomorrow through curriculum, research and services. There are challenges including energy-intensive laboratories and the use of hazardous substances; internationalisation and increasingly collaborative research leading to increased international flights and long distance travelling; high student turnover; and very diverse, often old, buildings that can be difficult to make more energy and water-efficient. Given the nature and scope of global sustainability challenges, there is a real responsibility and urgency associated with tackling operational sustainability within our universities. Combination of high research output on sustainability and the advantage of the current destructive technology trend will enables Greenation@uitm to drive and synergize the whole university system to ultimately achieve smarter and safer eco-friendly lifestyle.
    ANNUAL SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
    The Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) sustainability report is a document that includes Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations that contains information about a UiTM's significant non-financial performance. It is also an essential initial step in putting a strategy into action that can help UiTM define goals, gauge performance, manage risks and repercussions associated to sustainability, and comprehend how it adds value for its stakeholders.

    The importance of sustainability reporting's accuracy and openness is growing, according to a number of market trends and increased governmental and legal scrutiny. In addition to NGOs and consumers, regulators and investors are calling for the management of associated risks and opportunities as well as the transmission of a full sustainability evaluation. A clear evaluation and articulation of the UiTM's sustainability performance are required by an expanding number of financial instruments and strategic partners.

    As more internal and external stakeholders demand deeper understanding of how UiTM  manages risks and opportunities connected to material, environmental, social, and governance issues, they can also help to establish trust and credibility with these parties.
