15.2 Covenant University's Commitment to Ecosystem Conservation and Biodiversity
Covenant University is committed to protecting and enriching ecosystems and biodiversity both on campus and in the surrounding areas. In line with Sustainable Development Goal 15 (Life on Land), our efforts are centered on safeguarding habitats for plants and animals, with special attention to those facing environmental challenges.
15.2.1 Habitat Restoration and Green Spaces
Covenant University actively preserves and expands green spaces across campus to foster local biodiversity. By strategically planting native and drought-resistant species, such as date palms, aloe vera, and elephant grass, we enhance and sustain plant diversity. Our landscaping methods are designed to conserve water while creating habitats for birds, pollinators, and other small wildlife, supporting the health and resilience of local ecosystems.
15.2.2 Biodiversity and Sustainable Conservation
At Covenant University we are dedicated to continually monitor the plant and animal species within our campus. Our Environmental and Sustainability team works closely with academic departments to conduct regular assessments of local biodiversity. Through identifying vulnerable species and tracking population health, we develop and implement targeted strategies to safeguard these essential elements of our ecosystem.
