How Are the Sustainable Development Goals Being Worked within the Schools?
The integration of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in educational centers has become an imperative need to prepare new generations with the necessary competencies to respond to new global challenges. Schools, as educators, have a responsibility to foster education that promotes sustainable development, ensuring that new generations adopt practices and values that contribute to building a more equitable and sustainable future. The goal of this article is to provide an overview of the actions and experiences related to the SDGs that are being carried out at schools in the Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia (Spain). A purposive sampling was carried out, and the sample consisted of 40 educational centers. The centers were selected based, firstly, on their consideration as key agents in the development of the SDGs and, secondly, on their territorial representativeness. A descriptive qualitative research approach was adopted, using a semi-structured in-depth interview, with teachers and members of the management teams, as an instrument to collect 163 information. A content analysis based on grounded theory was conducted, which made it possible to identify the agents promoting actions and programs linked to the SDGs, as well as to categorize by theme the different actions being developed by the centers to contribute to the development of the SDGs and the 2030 Agenda.
