Arizona State University (ASU) became a founding member of the Intentional Endowments Network in 2016, though their sustainability journey began in 2006 with the founding of the School of Sustainability. Throughout the following years, ASU has been at the forefront of finding sustainability solutions. In their progress to align investment practices with their mission, they have developed sustainable investing policies, developed a carbon and ESG report for committee monitoring, and achieved Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon neutrality, among many other accomplishments. In January of 2022, ASU released their inaugural report sharing an update on their sustainable investing efforts.
