IJSHE Special Issue

Submissions are now open for Emerald Publishing 's Special Issue of the International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education. The theme is Making an Impact – UN Sustainable Development Goals and university performance.

Currently there is very limited research that puts United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the centre of discussions. Papers are being published from different areas and disciplines; however, there has been no integrated focus on how the United Nations Sustainable Development goals can impact sustainable behaviours. Further, how universities can influence the pursuance and achievement of the sustainable development goals is even less examined. However, with the availability of different kinds of rankings, this is changing. This issue of the journal could be the first to trigger interest, in an organized way, on how universities can contribute to the value of the SDGs. There is an opportunity to contribute in at least 17 different ways as there are 17 UN SDGs.
