Green Organizational Culture and Pro Eco-Friendly Practices in Public Universities Nigeria

This study investigates the influence of green organizational culture on pro eco-friendly practices in public universities in Anambra State, Nigeria, focusing on three key proxies: green leadership, green employee behaviour, and stakeholders’ engagement. A descriptive survey research design was adopted, and data were collected from 369 respondents drawn from two major public universities using a structured questionnaire. The data were analyzed using linear regression analysis. The findings reveal that green leadership has a strong positive and statistically significant influence on pro-eco-friendly practices (R² = 0.712, β = 0.902, t = 13.632, p = 0.000), indicating that sustainability-driven leadership explains 71.2% of the variation in eco-friendly practices. Similarly, green employee behaviour has a significant effect on pro-eco-friendly practices (R² = 0.452, β = 0.312, t = 7.256, p = 0.000), showing that employees’ active participation in eco-friendly initiatives accounts for 45.2% of the variance. Furthermore, stakeholders’ engagement also significantly influences pro eco-friendly practices (R² = 0.398, β = 0.279, t = 6.767, p = 0.000), suggesting that collaborative participation among staff, students, government, and communities contributes to sustainability adoption. The study concludes that green organizational culture plays a pivotal role in shaping pro-eco-friendly practices in public universities. Strengthening sustainability-oriented leadership, promoting employee-driven green behaviour, and fostering effective stakeholder collaboration are essential to improving environmental management. The findings have practical implications for policymakers, university administrators, and stakeholders committed to achieving sustainable development goals in higher education.
