Abstract
HE requires urgent transformation if it is to fulfil its potential to meet the current and emerging challenges facing humanity and the planet. Education for sustainable development requires transformative, critical and emancipatory pedagogies. Existing HE structures don’t readily support such approaches with hierarchical governance, siloed disciplines, transmissible pedagogies, and faculty-specific arranged learning spaces. This session explores the limitations in current practice, with particular reference to the operationalisation of ESD competencies and assessment of their impact. It will position the need for a T&L framework to support HE institutions to adapt and embed ESD in their curricula and the re-orientation of T&L practices towards a more competency-based approach.
