Education for a changing world: practical strategies for SDG implementation

In September 2015, the need for a sustainable world was acknowledged, and 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were established by United Nations members, emphasizing education's central role in promoting sustainable development. The importance of adopting an interdisciplinary approach to education for sustainable development is highlighted, along with strategies for its advancement, considering diverse perspectives on sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR).The SDGs' broad agenda, requiring multidisciplinary collaboration, is analyzed. Literature on interdisciplinarity in education for sustainable development, including practices and barriers, is reviewed with reference to the Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME).A case study is presented to demonstrate interdisciplinary education among diverse postgraduate MBA students through a course integrating sustainable development concepts. The application of PRME's Six Principles is shown, with an explanation of how a sustainability and CSR module enables students to synthesize knowledge across disciplines to address sustainability challenges.
