The Universiti Malaya EcoCampus Living Lab is our signature UMLL program introduced in 2015. This program is planned strategically to embed the elements of action research and innovation activities into the real sustainability implementation with the goals of minimizing harmful environmental impact on campus according to the action plans stipulated in the Universiti Malaya Eco-Campus Blueprint (UMECB), launched in 2016. The UMECB comprises eight (8) core areas selected on the basis of UM’s daily operation that potentially contribute to sustainability and addressing environmental challenges.
The eight (8) core areas of UM Eco-Campus Blueprint (UMECB) are as follows:
i. CAUM 01: Landscape & Biodiversity Management
ii. CAUM 02: Waste Management
iii. CAUM 03: Water Management
iv. CAUM 04: Energy Management
v. CAUM 05: Transportation System Management
vi. CAUM 06: Green Procurement
vii. CAUM 07: Education Management - Environment & Climate Change
viii. CAUM 08: Change Management - Governance, Participation & Communication
*CAUM: Core Area of UM EcoCampus Blueprint (UMECB).
Moving forward, UMSDC seek to address in particular the following Core Areas deemed necessary and strategic to propel action plans toward a better sustainable
and eco-campus:
i. CAUM 04: Energy Management
ii. CAUM 05: Transportation System Management
