Our Approach
Like all businesses we operate in a dynamic environment. Identifying and monitoring the trends that shape our industry is key to our ability to continue doing what we do well, long into the future. We combine data and information on these trends with feedback and insights from the people touched by our business to determine our strategic priorities.
Each of these strategic priorities is informed by impacts, risks and opportunities that are materially important to our business. In our 2030 Sustainability Strategy, we have defined why each of these priorities is important to our business, identified targets, initiatives and key performance metrics that will help us to track our progress over time and linked our actions to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Sustainable Development
Designing and building new student accommodation with our university partners is one of CLV’s core capabilities. To ensure these developments align with our Strategic Priorities we have developed a Sustainable Development Framework that guides our approach across the development lifecycle.
Wellbeing
Supporting the wellbeing of our student residents lies at the heart of our business.
Wellbeing is associated with good mental and physical health, high self-esteem, self-efficacy, a sense of belonging and having effective coping strategies.
Our evidence based CLV Cares framework governs our approach to supporting our residents to build and maintain their wellbeing.
Sustainability Reporting
We are committed to being transparent about the actions we are taking and the progress we are making against the commitments in our Sustainability Strategy.
We produce a detailed annual Sustainability Report as well as issue and region specific reports on topics such as preventing modern slavery, improving workplace gender equality and our efforts to achieve reconciliation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples in Australia.
Memberships and Frameworks
Our memberships and the frameworks we align to reflect our active engagement with leading sustainability, industry and governance bodies. By partnering with respected organisations and networks, we stay informed of emerging trends, contribute to best practices, and collaborate on solutions that drive meaningful change.
These affiliations support our commitment to continuous improvement and help us align with global standards in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance.
