American International University-Bangladesh (AIUB) is actively engaged in promoting Sustainable Development Goal 15 by supporting the conservation and sustainable use of land ecosystems. AIUB’s initiatives include educational outreach on management practices, where students and the community are encouraged to learn about sustainable agriculture and conservation of land resources. Through programs like the "World Environment Day" celebration, AIUB raises awareness about sustainable use of land and the protection of terrestrial ecosystems.
AIUB also emphasizes the importance of maintaining biodiversity and ensuring that campus development plans incorporate local biodiversity. This is exemplified by research projects like the "IoT-Based Smart Poultry and Fish Farming System", which focuses on improving farming practices while minimizing the impact on ecosystems.
To support sustainable land use, AIUB integrates waste disposal system, including the reduction of plastic waste and the disposal of hazardous materials in a manner that does not harm the land or ecosystems. AIUB also collaborates with local communities to maintain shared land ecosystems, working toward a collective approach to conservation.
By fostering education and implementing sustainable management practices, AIUB is making a significant contribution to the preservation of land ecosystems and biodiversity, as aligned with SDG-15.
