The Role of Education in Promoting Sustainable Development

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. Higher education institutes have been called upon to integrate sustainable development into their organisations. One university who has been working hard to do that is Sunway University, and we find out how from Dr Elizabeth Lee, the Chief Executive Officer of the Sunway Education Group.
