Following the GRI Standards and applying a double materiality approach, NUTN gathered stakeholder perspectives through surveys and multiple engagement channels. University administrators then assessed the impacts of each issue on institutional operations and on environmental, social, and economic dimensions. This process identified 13 material topics that serve as core references for institutional governance and sustainability strategies.
