Since the launch of Vision 2030 in 2016, the Kingdom has taken significant steps to scale up its climate action and environmental protection. Our mission is to support the Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 and the PSU’s strategic directions. Prince Sultan University’s Center for Sustainability and Climate (CSC) transform commitments into action and build a decarbonized, more sustainable world, driving technological and economic transformations to realize sustainable competitive advantage. To coordinate, promote, and accelerate interdisciplinary research and training on sustainability and climate, and the role of humans in the environment.

“Prince Sultan University is the First Saudi University to Pledge Net Zero Carbon University by 2060”
“Prince Sultan University is the Second Saudi University in SDG 17 - Partnerships for the goals”

With the launch of the Saudi Green Initiative in 2021 as part of Saudi Vision 2030, the Kingdom has reaffirmed its belief in a sustainable future for all. According to Saudi Green Initiative “The first wave of more than 60 initiatives announced under SGI—and unveiled at the October 2021 Saudi Green Initiative Forum—represent over SAR 700 billion investment to contribute to the growth of the green economy. Under the patronage of HRH Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi Green Initiative now takes efforts to the next level by unifying all sustainability efforts in the Kingdom to increase reliance on clean energy, offset the impact of fossil fuels and combat climate change.”

The Center for Sustainability and Climate (CSC) at PSU is strongly committed to contribute to the initiatives of Saudi Green Initiative, Saudi Vision 2030 and of course the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

We will work together to make a better world.
