Description
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are 17 global goals that represent a blueprint for transforming our world through social and environmental sustainability. For higher education, they offer opportunities for students from all university programs to apply critical thinking and problem- solving skills to address today’s grand challenges. What this means for higher education is an opportunity to build bridges between university programs with shared curricula, learning outcomes, and innovative collaborations. This presentation will show how learning can be transformed and universities can lead with education for sustainability, including options to contribute to and integrate open educational resources.
