Abstract
If the universities intend to be valid actors in sustainable development they have first to recognize the emergence of a new type of knowledge—transdisciplinarity knowledge—that is complementary to traditional, disciplinary knowledge. This process implies a necessary multidimensional opening of the University: towards the civil society, towards the other places of production of the new knowledge, towards cyber-space-time, towards the aim of universality, and towards a redefinition of the values governing its own existence.
