As the Dean of Sustainability, her aim in this role is to continue the ERS hub’s work, but take it to a different level. “Sustainability has been given an important and transversal role in our university’s new strategy,” she says in the interview published today. 

The key here is effective communication, Dr Ásványi tells QS Insights. “If you just say you want people to be more sustainable, they won’t do it, but if you speak with them, communicate with them, and show them that they are doing it already, they are more likely to want to know what else they can do to be more sustainable.” 

It’s this continued community engagement that was a big driver to embed sustainability throughout the programmes. 

“We don’t want any graduate to leave Corvinus without knowing about sustainability,” states Dr Ásványi. “It’s our duty to educate them about this so they can become responsible leaders.”
