Mission

At the College of Natural Resources and Environmental Governance (NReg), our mission is to empower and equip a new generation of leaders, practitioners, and scholars in the fields of natural resource management and environmental governance.

We are committed to:

• Delivering rigorous, interdisciplinary academic and professional programmes that integrate ecological sciences, socio-economic policy, governance frameworks, and sustainable development practices.

• Fostering critical thinking, analytical skills, and innovative problem-solving to address complex environmental challenges at local, national, and global scales.

• Engaging meaningfully with communities, industry, government, and civil society to translate knowledge into action — promoting ecosystem resilience, resource-use equity, and environmental justice.

• Cultivating a culture of ethical stewardship, evidence-based decision-making, inclusive participation, and forward-looking sustainability across all our teaching, research, and outreach activities.

Through these efforts, we aspire to contribute to sustainable livelihoods, vibrant ecosystems, and robust governance systems that serve present and future generations.
