The book delves into how HEIs can leverage their unique capabilities?such as research, innovation, and community engagement?to drive social and environmental change. It highlights various case studies and best practices from around the globe, showcasing how universities and colleges can integrate sustainability into their curricula, promote interdisciplinary approaches, and foster partnerships with governments and businesses. The book emphasizes the importance of education in empowering individuals and communities to understand and tackle global challenges, from poverty and inequality to climate change. It argues that HEIs are not just centers of learning, but also crucial actors in shaping policy and influencing societal norms. By equipping students with the necessary knowledge and skills, the book posits that higher education can lead to transformative actions that significantly contribute to achieving the SDGs. Overall, it is a call to action for educators, policymakers, and leaders to recognize and harness the potential of higher education in creating a sustainable future for all. 410 0$aWorld Sustainability Series,$x2199-7381 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironmental education 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironmental and Sustainability Education 606 $aHigher Education 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aEnvironmental education. 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 14$aSustainability. 615 24$aEnvironmental and Sustainability Education. 615 24$aHigher Education. 676 $a304.2 700 $aLeal Filho$b Walter$0326246 701 $aSalgueirinho Osório de Andrade Guerra$b José Baltazar$01854204 701 $aSima$b Mihaela$01854205 701 $aSalvia$b Amanda Lange$01770907 701 $aFrankenberger$b Fernanda$01460810 701 $aDibbern$b Thais$01854206 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911035058003321 996 $aThe Transformative Power of Higher Education Institutions in Accelerating the Implementation of the UN SDGs$94451282 997 $aUNINA
