European University of Lefke’s Commitment
European University of Lefke (EUL) is deeply committed to the principles of SDG 17 – Partnerships for the Goals.
EUL collaborates with international research teams across Africa, Türkiye, and Europe to collect large-scale environmental, climate, and socio-economic datasets. These studies use remote sensing, GIS, econometric modelling, and satellite data (e.g., USGS Landsat, FAO, and World Bank datasets) to quantify SDG-relevant indicators such as land-use change, biomass energy transition, and carbon emissions.
