Driving Responsible Investment

Flinders University: Committed to Responsible Investment

Flinders University embraces a holistic understanding of sustainability and will remain dedicated to solving environmental problems and promoting economic and social justice. In this context, the University will demonstrate its commitment to responsible investment by prioritising sustainable solutions and by maintaining an investment portfolio that considers broader Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors. This includes screening out and divesting from investments based on responsible investment factors, such as companies that derive revenue from fossil fuels as their primary business¹.
