Focus on Ethics, Responsibility and Sustainability: “A strong strategy regarding ethics, responsibility and sustainability, and a real strength of Faculty on such matters, both in terms of focal areas in teaching and research and in terms of diversity and inclusion in faculty management systems.” **
