Our work
Hong Kong University of Science and Technology

Overview
HKUST is one of the fastest growing universities in the world. HKUST was looking to maintain its leadership position in sustainability. We designed a programme to support stakeholder engagement including with large scale caterers across 8 universities and tenants. Training and strategy workshops on food sustainability, enabled businesses to identify challenges and take action.

Stakeholder Engagement
Engagement of students, F&B tenant brands, catering company headquarters
Approach
We designed a programme to engage all relevant stakeholders to educate and inspire, enable catering businesses to take action, and test the market to see if we can influence diner dietary choices.
- Sustainability training
- Audits and assessments
- Prioritisation workshops
- An 8 university wide programme to test behaviour change and influence diets

Outcomes
- Audit data is being used to inform the 2026 sustainability strategy
- Opportunities identified from audit are being incorporated into a bespoke pillar on sustainable food systems
- Caterers engaged on sustainability, identified challenges and solutions
- Sustainability executive hired to implement projects aligned to the newly created strategy of 5 pillars
- Clear direction of travel and priorities mapped against the Food Made Good Framework

“Our University prides itself in our aggressive approach to sustainability, meaning we set difficult targets and then challenge ourselves to develop creative solutions that are performance-based, data-driven, and create positive impacts for our community. The collaboration with Food Made Good HK fit our vision perfectly and helped us develop sustainability KPIs for our F&B outlets that are meaningful, measurable, and transparent.”
