The Global North and Global South are in different stages of the journeys towards a sustainable future. The Global North is focusing on cutting carbon emissions and discussing "de-growth", whilst large parts of the Global South are still struggling to move out of poverty, increasing their carbon emissions in many places. This division must be addressed through education, understanding the division and providing possible solutions. Higher Education Institutions (HEI) should take on a leadership role in shaping young minds through education and research to foster an enhanced perception of the variances in sustainability approaches of the Global North and Global South.Presenting chapters from an international set of contributors, this collection provides practical insights that inform practice, focusing on two themes: the design of HEI curricula; and a specific focus on Global North and Global South divide in addressing social and political differences, and the role that HEIs can play in addressing the divide.Higher Education for the Sustainable Development Goals is a must read for policymakers and researchers, learners, and management teams at HEIs.

Review

HEIs are in a position to address Sustainable Development Goals and contribute to bridging the Global North and South. Access to quality education means empowering individuals with the knowledge, skills, and critical thinking abilities required to contribute both towards socio-economic development and to solving the significant global challenges we all currently face. Kudos to the editors of this book for seizing the opportunity to address key topics in this area. -- Prof David Lefevre, Professor of Practice in Management and Entrepreneurship, Imperial College, London, UKThis book's unique focus on Global North and Global South perspectives on the role that HEIs can play in addressing the Sustainable Development Goals makes it a must read for both policymakers and researchers. -- Prof Melissa S. Fisher, Cultural Anthropologist Visiting Scholar, NYU Institute for Public KnowledgeHuman activity has placed significant pressure on our planet's resources, yet HEIs have failed to successfully harness our intellectual capacity to ensure a habitable future. HEI's should play a pivotal role in helping create a future in which socioeconomic prosperity is shared across the globe on a healthy and sustainable planet. This can be achieved through innovation and the exploration of more just and sustainable futures. In this context, an evolution of HEI's must occur bridging existing gaps between the Global North and South. A new formulation of HEI's must be designed to substantially contribute to this global mission and by accelerating innovation and producing much larger research, teaching, and real-world impact in critical areas that meet the urgent human and planetary crises now and into the future. This book enables a solid foundation for starting to address these critical issues. -- Prof Eusebio Scornavacca, Director & Professor of Innovation Policy - School for the Future of Innovation in Society, College of Global Futures; and Professor of Global Digital Innovation - Thunderbird School of Global Management, Arizona State University, USA
