This book explores the multifaceted roles of universities in driving green transitions, with a particular emphasis on the teaching and learning missions alongside third mission roles. It argues that universities are uniquely positioned to address urgent sustainability challenges, such as climate change and resource depletion, but that key challenges remain.
International in scope, this book demonstrates how universities are proactively shaping green transitions by endorsing sustainability competencies, engaging with local and global challenges, and innovating research and community partnerships. Looking beyond the curriculum, contributing authors highlight non-academic approaches to fostering green transitions, including the importance of socialisation, strategy and strategic partnerships, and societal engagement on a systemic level. They outline crucial challenges and dilemmas across diverse case studies with a particular focus on Asia and the Global South, proposing novel solutions and future pathways for policy, practice, and research.
Higher Education and Green Transitions is a valuable resource for scholars and students of public policy and management studies. It is also beneficial to university administrators and academic leaders tasked with designing university-wide initiatives on green transitions.
