With less than six years for 2030 and to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), initiatives to support their implementation need to be urgently accelerated. Including the goals into higher education teaching is one of these initiatives, considering the role played by universities in promoting the SDGs, offering learning opportunities and training future generations. The aim of this study is to present the international project “Digital introduction of the Sustainable Development Goals into Higher Education Teaching” (DITTS)—a partnership between University of Passo Fundo (Brazil), University of South Africa (South Africa) and Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (Germany), and the materials prepared. The project fosters the creation and dissemination of open educational materials for higher education institutions as a strategy to introduce the SDGs to students from all areas. The collaboration among the partner institutions and countries leverages the expertise and regional insights of each team, that enrich each teaching module. The paper will present the main lessons from the teaching modules prepared by the research team, and recommendations to support further South-South and North–South collaboration and sustainability initiatives in higher education institutions.

摘要

With less than six years for 2030 and to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), initiatives to support their implementation need to be urgently accelerated. Including the goals into higher education teaching is one of these initiatives, considering the role played by universities in promoting the SDGs, offering learning opportunities and training future generations. The aim of this study is to present the international project “Digital introduction of the Sustainable Development Goals into Higher Education Teaching” (DITTS)—a partnership between University of Passo Fundo (Brazil), University of South Africa (South Africa) and Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (Germany), and the materials prepared. The project fosters the creation and dissemination of open educational materials for higher education institutions as a strategy to introduce the SDGs to students from all areas. The collaboration among the partner institutions and countries leverages the expertise and regional insights of each team, that enrich each teaching module. The paper will present the main lessons from the teaching modules prepared by the research team, and recommendations to support further South-South and North–South collaboration and sustainability initiatives in higher education institutions.
