Publications Database

Welcome to the new Schulich Peer-Reviewed Publication Database!

The database is currently in beta-testing and will be updated with more features as time goes on. In the meantime, stakeholders are free to explore our faculty’s numerous works. The left-hand panel affords the ability to search by the following:

  • Faculty Member’s Name;
  • Area of Expertise;
  • Whether the Publication is Open-Access (free for public download);
  • Journal Name; and
  • Date Range.

At present, the database covers publications from 2012 to 2020, but will extend further back in the future. In addition to listing publications, the database includes two types of impact metrics: Altmetrics and Plum. The database will be updated annually with most recent publications from our faculty.

If you have any questions or input, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to dive into the unique context of Nigerian universities, exploring their roles in terms of campus sustainability practices and the challenges they face while implementing sustainability initiatives.
Design/methodology/approach
This study investigates sustainability practices through in-depth interviews with higher education institutions (HEIs) in developing countries. Experts from eight different government-owned universities in the Southwestern region of Nigeria participated in this study through a purposive sampling technique. The study leveraged the Sustainability Tracking and Rating System framework to determine potential sustainability management indicators tailored to the Nigerian context.
Findings
The findings reveal a limited degree of engagement and implementation and show that HEIs adopt a wide range of sustainability approaches. Hence, underlying the necessity for concerted efforts to enhance sustainability initiatives in Nigerian HEIs.
Originality/value
To the best of the authors’ knowledge, no previous studies have investigated Campuses’ Sustainability Practices in Nigerian HEIs. This study contributes to the body of literature by clarifying the challenges faced by Nigerian HEIs as their comprehension of sustainability practices widens, which has gotten little attention in previous literature.
