In a time of unprecedented transformation as society seeks to build
a more sustainable future, education plays an increasingly central
role in training key agents of change. This book asks how we can
equip students and scholars with the capabilities to promote
sustainability and how the higher education curriculum can be
changed to facilitate the paradigm shift needed. Across the globe,
a rising number of higher education institutions and academics are
responding to these questions by transforming their own teaching
and learning and their institutions' curricula. This book
contributes to that development by examining in-depth case studies
of innovative approaches and curriculum changes at multiple levels
of the education sector. Elaborating key principles of higher
education for sustainable development and identifying drivers and
barriers to implementing sustainability in the curriculum, the book
provides a comprehensive overview of what makes higher education
for sustainable development a unique field of research and
practice, as well as offering a coherent narrative of how change
can be effected in it. This much-needed book is a valuable resource
to inform, guide and inspire students, academics, administrators
and community partners, whether experienced or new to the field,
whether already committed or not to higher education for
sustainable development in an age of transformation.
