Öz

Sustainability communication is vital in informing, inspiring, and mobilizing individuals and organizations to take collective actions that contribute to environmental protection, social justice, and economic prosper-ity. A crucial aspect of sustainability, ecological footprint awareness assesses the consciousness of the im-pact of individuals or communities on the environment. This research investigates the level of ecological footprint awareness among academic staff at Gazi University, Turkey, using a comprehensive scale. Find-ings indicate varying levels of awareness across dimensions influenced by gender, marital status, academic title, and income, suggesting potential implications for policymakers and university administrators. The efficacy of sustainability and ecological footprint reduction initiatives can be increased among heteroge-neous cohorts of academic personnel by implementing customized communications and awareness initia-tives. Additional investigation may further elucidate the precise determinants underlying these disparities and scrutinize the most efficacious modes of communication for each faction, thereby augmenting the sus-tainability discourse at Gazi University and in the broader context.

Gazi Üniversitesi Akademik Personelinde Ekolojik Ayak İzi Farkındalığının Artırılması: Sürdürülebilirlik İletişimi Yaklaşımı

Sürdürülebilirlik iletişimi, bireyleri ve kuruluşları çevrenin korunmasına, sosyal adalete ve ekonomik refaha katkıda bulunacak kolektif eylemlerde bulunmaları için bilgilendirmek, ilham vermek ve harekete geçirmek açısından hayati önem taşımaktadır. Sürdürülebilirliğin önemli bir yönü olan ekolojik ayak izi farkındalığı, bireylerin veya toplulukların çevre üzerindeki etkilerinin bilincini değerlendirir. Bu araştırma, Gazi Üniversitesi akademik personelinin ekolojik ayak izi farkındalık düzeyini kapsamlı bir ölçek kullanarak incelemektedir. Bulgular, cinsiyet, medeni durum, akademik unvan ve gelirden etkilenen boyutlar arasında değişen farkındalık düzeylerine işaret ederek politika yapıcılar ve üniversite yöneticileri için potansiyel çıkarımlar önermektedir. Sürdürülebilirlik ve ekolojik ayak izi azaltma girişimlerinin etkinliği, özelleştirilmiş iletişim ve farkındalık girişimleri uygulanarak heterojen akademik personel grupları arasında artırılabilir. Ek araştırmalar, bu eşitsizliklerin altında yatan kesin belirleyicileri daha da aydınlatabilir ve her bir grup için en etkili iletişim biçimlerini inceleyerek Gazi Üniversitesi’nde ve daha geniş bağlamda sürdürülebilirlik söylemini güçlendirebilir.
