1 Introduction
Universities have a significant role in the achievement of the Sustainable Development goals (SDGs). Young people who start their education at university today
will play critical role in sustainable development in a future. “A Guide for universities, higher educational institutions, and the academic sector” pointed, that “The
SDGs cover a wide range of complex social, economic, and environmental challenges
and addressing them will require transformations in how societies and economies
function and how we interact with our planet. Education, research, innovation and
leadership will be essential in helping society address these challenges. Universities,
with their broad remit around the creation and dissemination of knowledge and their
unique position within society, have a critical role to play in the achievement of the
SDGs. Arguably none of the SDGs will be achieved without this sector” (SDSN
Australia/Pacifc (2017)).
