A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome:
In August 2014 Ohio University's Office of Sustainability launched a monthly professional development program for the University's Design & Construction, Facilities and other administrative staff to provide updated information on sustainable design, construction and related practices, as well as to foster communication and collaboration among departments. Workshops have resulted in the direct connection of project managers with Recycling & Refuse staff and the drafting of new Design & Construction Standards language concerning waste management; the direct connection of the University to the Green Building Institute and the Green Globes Rating System; updates to LEED v.4; and the introduction of numerous green building design aspects, including vegetated roofs, geothermal heat pumps and the innovative placement of windows and light shelves to decrease the need for artificial illumination during daylight hours.
