Sustainability education needs to go beyond the SDGs

Research output: Contribution to specialist publication › Article

Abstract

Many universities are exploring how to prepare their students to live in a world increasingly affected by climate change. To do this, they are integrating sustainability into curricula by aligning teaching and research with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While this is an important first step, we would argue that sustainability education needs to go further than this in both depth and breadth.
