UI GreenMetric World University Rankings

The UI GreenMetric World University Rankings is an international evaluation platform that assesses universities worldwide based on their commitment to environmental sustainability and sustainable campus management.

Established in 2010 by the University of Indonesia, GreenMetric evaluates participating institutions annually, promoting global awareness of sustainability issues and encouraging environmentally responsible practices in higher education.

The ranking assesses universities across key indicators, including:

Each indicator is scored, and universities are ranked according to their total score, allowing for comparison both globally and regionally.
