Introduction
In the 17th conference of UNESCO in Teaching and Learning, though educators realized that the future
teaching mindset and pedagogy needed to be changed to match the needs of the community, the
issues were the implementation of appropriate institutionalized policy to increase the relevancy of
continual professional development of scholars, teachers, industry practitioners to understand the
linkage between sustainability development and supply chain management in various kinds of
industries. As a result, UNESCO Bangkok acted as a co-organiser to support the 1st Forum on Sustainable
Development in Higher Education organized by Hang Seng Management College, Hong Kong to
cover, but not limit, the following areas:
- Sustainable Development in Responsible Management for impacts on economy, ecology
and equity of communities;
- Sustainable Development in Programmes/ Modules Design/ Character Building for impacts
on pedagogic reform; and
- Sustainable Development in Environments, including operating environment and campus
design for impacts on ecology and behavioral change of students and staff.
Objectives of the Forum
- Launch the Sustainable Development in Higher Education network (SD in HE – Net);
- Share the current approaches, projects and good practices in higher education
institutions and industries of sustainability education;
- Identify potential areas of joint activities; and
- Discuss 2nd forum on Sustainability Development in Higher Education (SD in HE) and
other follow-up activities for 2016.
