Course Description:
Sustainable development integrates environmental integrity, social equity, and economic viability to meet present human needs while safeguarding the ability of future generations to do the same. This course introduces sustainability as an applied, interdisciplinary field through the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Students explore sustainability concepts through experiential and service-learning activities, including volunteering or collaborating with local communities to observe and analyze sustainability challenges connected to one or more SDGs. Working in group projects, students examine these challenges and evaluate how global sustainability goals are applied at the local level. |
