Research Workshop II: "Education for Sustainable Development – Indicators for Assessment and Monitoring"

Organized by Prof. Inka Bormann

The aim of the workshop is to point out the roles that universities can embrace regarding Education for Sustainable Development. The discussion of best-practice examples will provide the basis for our conversation. We will explore characteristics that are necessary for catalyzing the transformation of societies towards sustainability (through Higher Education for Sustainable Development). In particular, we are interested in the collaborations between universities and other societal actors.

A focus will be on the discussion of their impact or potential impact as well as their transferability based on the analysis of best-practice examples. Furthermore, we will look into the question of the measurability of Education for Sustainable Development and ask what are appropriate indicators for self-evaluation and reporting?
