Implementing Sustainability in Higher Education - Matthias (Ostwestfalen-Lippe University of Applied Sciences Barth - Bog

This book asks how we can equip students and scholars with the capabilities to contribute to a more sustainable future, and the higher education curriculum can be changed in a way 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 offering a systematic review of existing case studies, reports of innovative approaches, and curriculum changes. It elaborates not only key principles of higher education for sustainable development and drivers and barriers to implementing sustainability in the curriculum, it also provides evidence-based insights in what works and what doesn¿t ¿ and, most important, why.
