The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a blueprint for collaboration to create positive change. They are a global call to action for countries, communities, and higher education institutions to come together to co-create solutions to the fundamental challenges facing the global community – like poverty, hunger, inequality, and climate change – and lay the groundwork for a long-term equitable, peaceful, and prosperous future.
As we are now less than a decade away from 2030, it is more urgent than ever to think critically about how higher education institutions can take on this role in supporting the necessary transformations towards the 2030 Agenda.
