Journal summary
Journal summary
The issue of sustainability in a higher education context is, to some extent, a recent theme. Since over 600 universities worldwide have committed themselves towards sustainability by signing international agreements and conventions such as the Bologna Charter, The Halifax Declaration, the Talloires Declaration and the Copernicus Charter for Sustainable Development, the journal provides a vital outlet for this emerging research field. More recently, the "Agenda 2030" agreed by the UN General Assembly in November 2015 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) mean that higher education institutions should, more than ever, engage on the implementation of sustainable development across all subject areas. Cooperation partners: The Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE), the European School of Sustainability Science and Research, the Inter-University Sustainable Development Research Programme (IUSDRP) and the German Consortium for Sustainability Research (DEKONA).
