SDGs 12: Responsible Consumption and Production​

Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns

Our Goals in Action

Operational Measures

Universities advancing SDG 12, “Responsible Consumption and Production,” should implement sustainable practices like eco-friendly procurement, waste reduction, and energy efficiency. Embedding sustainability in curriculum and research, they educate and influence future leaders. Through innovative technologies and community outreach, universities not only practice but also promote a culture of sustainability, extending their impact beyond campus, shaping responsible consumption and production patterns in the wider community and industries.

Universitas Indonesia has an ethical policy in the procurement of food and supplies through UI Rector’s Decree No. 057 of 2017 concerning the Implementation of Safety, Occupational Health, and Environment (K3L) of UI canteens issued on December 4, 2017.

Universitas Indonesia has a waste disposal policy to measure the amount of waste recycled and sent to landfills. In accordance with the 17 SDGs points, UI issues a policy on Green Campus as stated in UI Rector’s Decree No. 2893/SK/R/UI/2018 concerning Green Campus Policy of Universitas Indonesia.

UI classifies waste into organic, inorganic, and plastic bottles to be managed according to its type, to be recycled and reused. Organic waste will be processed into compost. Inorganic waste is further managed by cleaning staff. Liquid waste will be treated technically using a control in the form of a grease trap that is cleaned every day before being discharged into the septic tank/water catchment, allowing oil/grease to be handled separately before being discharged elsewhere.

In minimizing the utilization of disposable items, all faculty members, staff, students, and cleaning staff are requested to use reusable items such as glasses that can be refilled in drinking water fountains. Furthermore, Universitas Indonesia also reduces the use or purchase of paper or cost of photocopies by maximizing the use of information technology systems in the administration of correspondence starting from the head. Furthermore, there are restrictions on the use of food and beverage containers for work unit meetings, replacing them with plates and glasses as well as gallons of water instead.

Zero Plastic Program of Universitas Indonesia

In order to support Universitas Indonesia as a green campus, UI carries out daily activities by making changes such as reducing paper and plastic consumption in the provision of cutlery in the workspace and other activities. Each teaching staff in several faculties is also provided with ceramic tumblers to reduce the use of single-use plastic bottles.

The minimization policy of Universitas Indonesia is in line with the UI Green Campus Policy through the UI Rector’s Decree No. 2893/SK/R/UI/2018 supporting 17 SDGs targets.

Universitas Indonesia by the Directorate of Facility Management and Maintenance (DOPF) has launched the UI Waste Management System work program divided into Sorting, Storing, Transporting, and Processing. There is a recycling process where more than 75% of the organic waste generated at UI is processed to be reused. Garbage and waste produced by UI are transported by UI landfill officers.

Waste Management System of Universitas Indonesia

At the faculty level, the provision of battery and electronic waste bins is carried out in collaboration with students, through recording and monitoring. Inorganic waste is sent to a Temporary Waste Disposal Site (TPS) to be further handled by the cleaning staff and picked up by a third party (DPPF UI). The vendor handles renovation waste such as iron, concrete, brick, glass, etc.

Publication Of A Sustainability Report

The “Publication of a Sustainability Report” is pivotal for SDG 12, “Responsible Consumption and Production.” This practice involves organizations disclosing their environmental, social, and economic impacts, demonstrating transparency and accountability in sustainable practices. Such reports assess progress towards eco-friendly operations, responsible resource use, and social responsibility. They guide policy-making, inform stakeholders, and foster a culture of sustainability, aligning corporate actions with global goals for sustainable development and responsible production.

An annual sustainability report has been reported by Universitas Indonesia since 2017. In 2010, the sustainability report promoted the theme of “Ensuring Sustainability in the Midst of a Pandemic”. For example, the faculty compiles a sustainability report based on the UI GreenMetric World University Rankings promoting sustainability in national and global movements.
