The increasing impermeabilization of soil and intensification of extreme weather events have heightened the risk of flooding at Unicamp's Zeferino Vaz campus. Designed in the 1960s, the current drainage infrastructure is no longer adequate to meet present and future climate challenges. This study proposes the requalification of the drainage system through Nature-Based Solutions (NbS), aligning with Unicamp’s 2021-2031 Integrated Territorial Master Plan and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). NbS promote a shift from traditional rapid runoff models to sustainable drainage strategies that enhance infiltration, evapotranspiration, and retention. The project adopts a multi-scalar methodology, integrating interventions at the lot, street, neighborhood, and watershed levels. Planning is structured into five steps: hydrological diagnosis, mapping of impermeable and flood-prone areas, typology selection, feasibility analysis, and integration into institutional planning. The project is currently in its third step, identifying suitable NbS typologies for priority zones on campus. Supported by Unicamp’s sustainability governance, the initiative is embedded in a broader data-driven and participatory approach. It also foresees the integration of educational components, monitoring systems, and partnerships with academic and municipal stakeholders. Preliminary results include a complete hydrological diagnosis, detailed geospatial mapping of impermeable and flood-prone areas, and the preliminary selection of NbS typologies tailored to priority campus zones. The expected outcomes include flood risk reduction, increased biodiversity, enhanced thermal comfort, and the creation of outdoor learning environments. By leveraging its living lab model and long-standing sustainability commitment, Unicamp aims to transform environmental challenges into opportunities for innovation and resilience, and offers a replicable model for universities and urban areas.

The Strategic Sustainability Action Plan (PAESUS) at Universidade Estadual de Campinas (Unicamp) ensures a structured and predictable approach to sustainability investments, in line with the university's 2021-2025 Strategic Plan and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The initiative integrates sustainability into academic, operational, and governance practices, promoting long-term environmental impact. In its Year Zero, PAESUS implemented pilot projects across Unicamp’s campuses, focusing on energy efficiency, water conservation, waste management, and climate resilience. In 2024, the first public call for projects attracted 17 proposals, with 10 selected for development in 2025, based on a prioritization matrix evaluating impact and feasibility. The program secured R$3 million in additional and immediate investments, reinforcing initiatives in climate action, sustainable mobility, and resource optimization. With integrated governance and interdisciplinary collaboration, PAESUS fosters innovation and strengthens Unicamp’s sustainable management culture. Progress is monitored using global sustainability indicators, such as UI GreenMetric and THE Impact, ensuring accountability and continuous improvement. By advancing strategic sustainability actions, PAESUS positions Unicamp as a leader in sustainable development within higher education, offering a model for other institutions to follow.
