Having first appeared in the mid-1990s, policy actions for improving how sustainable development principles are put into practice on university campuses have been growing more and more. This has taken place mainly on North American campuses and has subsequently spread to a number of developed nations across the globe, bringing to light in each case an array of indicators used to cover all the components of this concept. The purpose of this article is firstly to define the major principles that Lille Catholic University holds in order to set up its own sustainable development indicators. Secondly, this article focuses on the formulae used for creating a composite indicator for a sustainable campus. Thirdly, it will try to highlight some of the possible actions that could be implemented on campus in order to improve the score of some of these indicators.
