Abstract

In the era defined by the imperative of harmonizing prosperity with environmental preservation and societal equity, sustainable development has emerged as a central global concern. Higher education institutions are pivotal in this transformative journey, serving as conduits for the transmission of knowledge and skills essential for navigating the intricate challenges of Sustainable Development Goals and Sustainable Economic Developments. This paper investigates the significance of higher education in conveying knowledge pertinent to Sustainable Development Goals and Sustainable Economic Developments. It systematically explores the integration of sustainable principles into higher education curricula, the promotion of interdisciplinary learning, the contribution to research and innovation, and the cultivation of environmental awareness, social equity and economic strategies. The study is underpinned by the qualitative analysis of existing literature, institutional practices, and case studies. The findings of this research elucidate the critical role of higher education institutions in the pursuit of sustainable economic development. They reveal that higher education institutions are increasingly embedding sustainability principles into their curricula, fostering interdisciplinary perspectives, and driving research and innovation in sustainable practices. These institutions also play a pivotal role in raising environmental awareness, equipping graduates with skills for formulating sustainable economic strategies and promoting social equity within the framework of sustainable development. Higher education is pivotal in transmitting knowledge essential for sustainable economic development. The role is multifaceted from curriculum integration to fostering environmental consciousness and promoting social justice. The study calls for continued investment and support in higher education to ensure that sustainable development remains at the forefront of global agendas.
