Assessing sustainability culture

 

Awake has developed a unique model of the enablers of the culture of sustainability. By addressing both the psychological/attitudinal drivers of sustainability engagement, and the support mechanisms that need to be in place in order to facilitate action, the Sustainability Culture Model provides a platform for informing your sustainability strategy.

Dubai Electricity and Water Corporation

Recognised as a regional and global leader in sustainability, DEWA has implemented the SCI annually since 2015. The results form a KPI for tracking sustainability engagement year-on-year.

“This indicator is particularly important as it offers credible, transparent, and in-depth results using a reliable methodology. This enables us to identify sustainable awareness among our employees”.

 

University of Tasmania

UTAS has implemented the SCI in 2016, 2018 and 2020 to provide a biennial check-in on how well sustainability is being embedded in the culture of the university.

“The surveys were incredibly useful in discovering our community’s understanding of what we have accomplished and what we need to focus on in the future. In addition, the ability to compare our results to other organisations and increasingly with other tertiary education institutions has been valuable in gaining further institutional understanding of, and support for, embedding sustainability across all our activity areas”

Fujitsu

Employees in 7 global delivery centres around the world completed the SCI, in order to benchmark how well sustainability was being embraced, and to identify opportunities for further improvement.

Kimberly Clark (Australia/NZ)

Already an award-winner for their sustainability engagement efforts, Kimberly Clark used the SCI to identify where they could ensure sustainability is embedded even more deeply in their organisational culture.

“The results of the survey provided invaluable insight into the extent to which sustainability is embedded in KCANZ’s culture. This will provide us with clear direction and a strong basis on which to plan our future sustainability efforts.”
