Undertake actions to promote more sustainable commuting

May 17, 2024 SDG11

Universitas Sriwijaya (UNSRI) promotes sustainable commuting through several ways:

First, UNSRI provides internal public transport options, such as campus buses and shuttles, to facilitate mobility for students, faculty, and staff. This service aims to reduce dependency on private vehicles and cut carbon emissions. Additionally, UNSRI has adopted electric vehicles, providing 30 electric bicycle units for operational activities on campus and promoting a zero-emission transport alternative.

Second, UNSRI takes action to improve driving safety culture. Academics from the Faculty of Public Health launched a “Driving Safety Culture on Campus” community service program. The material focused on safety education, safe riding techniques, traffic sign knowledge, and the importance of personal protective equipment (PPE) like helmets and gloves. An enthusiastic two-way discussion yielded feedback for improving campus driving conditions, with the ultimate goal of reducing accidents.
