A brief summary of papers, guides, presentations, and other resources the institution has developed to share their sustainability experience with other institutions:
Hope College participated in the "Environmental Dashboard" implementation project with multiple Great Lakes College Association (GLCA) Colleges to foster collaboration across campuses. This includes collaborative initiatives that seek to educate populations--on college campuses, in public school systems, and in local communities--about how changing practices can result in a more vibrant and sustained future for humanity.
