Abstract

In 2015, United Nations Member States adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which is framed around 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The UN describes these goals as “an urgent call for action by all countries,” emphasizing the importance of global partnerships. Each of the 17 SDGs has implications for higher education. This first podcast introduces our theories on the relationship between the sustainable development goals and research in and on higher education. The podcast is led by Dr Kate Mawson (Nottingham Trent University), and Professor Richard Hall (De Montfort University).

Description
