A list of keywords was established from the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the Earth Charter Principles, and by the University of Manitoba’s Office of Sustainability Staff. The Office of Research and International searched for all ongoing University of Manitoba Faculty Research projects during the 2020 – 2021 fiscal year using the keyword list. The resulting report was provided to the Office of Sustainability who reviewed the projects and removed unrelated or duplicate projects from the list.
