The Global North and Global South are at different stages of their journey towards a sustainable future. While the Global North is actively focused on reducing carbon emissions and discussing concepts like "de-growth," significant portions of the Global South continue to face challenges in escaping poverty, leading to increased carbon emissions in many regions. Addressing this divide requires a comprehensive approach that includes education, understanding the underlying factors, and proposing viable solutions.
Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) have a crucial role to play in shaping young minds and fostering a greater appreciation for the diverse sustainability approaches of the Global North and Global South. By incorporating education and research into their curricula, HEIs can play a pivotal role in promoting an enhanced understanding of these differences. This understanding is essential in addressing social and political disparities and bridging the gap between the two regions.
In light of this, Higher Education for the Sustainable Development Goals: Shaping Young Minds for a Sustainable Future presents a collection of chapters from international contributors. These chapters offer practical insights that inform practice, with a specific focus on the design of HEI curricula and the challenges associated with addressing the Global North and Global South divide in addressing social and political differences. The book is a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, learners, and management teams at HEIs, as it provides valuable insights into the role of higher education in promoting sustainable development.
By leveraging their expertise and resources, HEIs can contribute to the global effort towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and creating a more equitable and sustainable world for all.
