HEI’s commitment on sustainability issue toward nation building: How Indonesia HEI policies conform to SDGs?

higher education institutions (HEIs), and education in general, are playing a crucial role the discourse of promoting sustainability. HEIs have a substantial responsibility to increase awareness and access to the technology and resources required to build a sustainable future through education. HEIs have a substantial responsibility to increase awareness and access to the technology and resources to build a sustainable future through education, research, and policy recommendation. Therefore, strategic plan policies at many levels are required to be catalysts and key engines of social transformation in order to establish and encourage the best practices of sustainability in higher education. The paper aims to map and identify all of the patterns and characteristics of sustainability policies at Indonesian HEI and to what extend it contributed to the national sustainable policy. Data was collected by searching policy documents on each target university’s website using the terms “sustainability”, “green campus”, and “sustainable development”, “kampus hijau”, dan “berkelanjutan”. The analysis in this research has been limited by curating only the Top 10 Universities from listed in UI Greenmetrics of 2022. The result shows the pattern and characteristics of sustainability policy in Indonesia is still not adequately and systematically structured, Furthermore, several HEIs structured policies in order to comply with Greenmetrics’ regulations. In conclusion, the situation may be the result of the absence of a national-level policy in Indonesia that gives comprehensive guidance and blueprints for how sustainable practices and policies should be implemented at HEIs.
