Sustainability Curriculum in Higher Education: A Call to Action
Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education
This report is a culmination of the ideas presented during AASHE's Summit on Sustainability in the Curriculum to address how higher education institutions can further infuse sustainability topics into college and university curricula. Recognizing the scale of the challenges faced by higher education and the urgency with which changes must be addressed, this report includes opportunities for building on further strategies and gives recommendations for broad national strategies for meeting these challenges. (Contains 1 footnote.)
