Our Mission

Our Vision

The mission of UGA Costa Rica is
to advance our understanding–
through instruction, research
and outreach– of the
interconnected nature of human
and environmental systems,
particularly the concepts of a
socio-cultural, ecological and
economic sustainability.

The vision that guides the UGA
Costa Rica campus is a world in
which human and environmental
systems are not seen as separate
but operate in harmony with
one another; where humans
appreciate, protect and use nature
in a sustainable way; and where
people seek to understand and
appreciate other cultures.

This report is produced in
collaboration with the University of
Georgia Office of Sustainability.
