At Chico State, we are dedicated to sustainable development as a means of balancing human social, cultural, and economic needs with the natural environment by respecting the finite natural resources of this planet and living in harmony with other humans and species now and into the future. We strive to become leaders in achieving a new vision of education, which integrates the principles of sustainable development into the academic programs, practices, and collaborations of our university.

This Web site is the forum for information about Chico State's contributions to sustainable development and this new vision of education. We encourage you to learn more and join us in advancing sustainable development for the future of humanity.
