Abstract

To identify and problematise the key issues characterising the relationship between global sustainability contexts and the limited response of HE to date - with the purpose of unlocking the potential for innovative, replicable efforts to develop sustainability competencies through innovation in curriculum policy and practice, through addressing these sub-aims: How far does HE policy accommodate and reflect the need for sustainability competencies? How can capacity for teaching for competency be built and supported through new policies? How can curricula and pedagogy be better aligned to facilitate the building of sustainability competency in learners and teachers? What effect and influence does education for sustainability competency have in terms of facilitating transformative social learning, supporting systems structure change, and cultivating informed responsibility (in terms of policy and everyday decision making)?
