Abstract(s)
Linking the economic, social and environmental aspects of any
plan, project or activity is fundamental to act according to the
sustainable development goals. These three dimensions are
interrelated and interconnected in such a way that it is sometimes
very hard to discriminate what their individual effects are, or on
the contrary, how their joint effects are synergistic. And if this is
generically a difficult task, when it comes to education the
difficulty becomes even more significant, as one must be very
careful defining concepts in an absolutely clear and undoubtful
way. While the specialization is required to educate professionals
able to accurately project and build these projects, it is now
mandatory that everyone is also able to understand the causes and
effects of their actions, towards sustainable development.
In this Track, different teaching & learning approaches have been
presented and discussed, aiming to use Higher Education as a
highway to educate the professionals of the near future as
strategic partners for the development of different mindsets, able
to tackle the real problems.
