2030 Sustainable Development Goals and higher education: A digital experience in the context of the Interdisciplinary Service-Learning

Abstract

The digital revolution has played a decisive role in economic and social development. With Covid-19, the need to maintain services and organizations working, adjusting to the social distancing rules, forced institutions to develop new strategies using technologies. In this context, CapacitAmente Project was developed at Universidade Católica Portuguesa, integrating teachers and students from Social Work and Psychology dedicated to promoting continuous training to employees of social solidarity institutions. Using the Service-Learning methodology to implement this interdisciplinary project, a set of actions were developed anchored in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, in close collaboration with United Nations University. This project constitutes a potential contribution of good practices for Digital Governance, making theoretical and practical knowledge accessible to all without discrimination, supporting the formulation of policies and the provision of services for the SDGs.
