COBISS.SI-ID: 67357953In times of crisis, society needs a university capable of providing innovativesolutions and opening up new horizons. As Einstein put it, Ćproblemscannot be solved by the same level of thinking that created themĆ. Therefore, effective solutions must be sought at a higher level. Universities play a key role in raising awareness of social responsibility and sustainable development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. By setting a positive example, the University of Maribor strives to create an innovative environmentand an effective organisation contributing to balanced, sustainableand socially responsible development of the University, the city ofMaribor and the entire country through discovery and transfer of new knowledge. Since the University does not yet implement all of these principles, both a Council and a Committee for Sustainability and Social Responsibility have been established. The Council has formulated various proposals for development, which will be presented at this yearćs IRDO conference. When transforming our University into a sustainable and socially responsible institution, all four dimensions of sustainable development (environmental, economic, social and ethic), all seven principles and core subjects of social responsibility (organizational management, human rights, labour practices, environment, consumer issues, fair operating practices, community involvement and development) as well as both related terms (interdependence and holistic approach) addressed in ISO 26000 will be taken into account.
