The newly formed UCD Library Green Group wanted to foster cross campus collaboration as they believed this would assist in realising their green goals. They saw the Learning Enhancement Project as a direct route to the student cohort who, motivated by their passion for the planet, would be willing to help the Library with this task.
Initiative
Embedding UN SDG’s within Curricula at MTU
About this initiative
This project will develop a process at institutional level to help programme teams embed SDGs within curricula. The process will help programme teams to identify core/priority SDGs aligned to their subject area discipline, evaluate the current level of SDG alignment and develop the process to enable programme teams to transition to ensure the core/priority SDGs are embedded and explicitly assessed at various points within the programme. The project will also develop tools to communicate the relevance of programmes to the SDGs to students and external agencies. This communication is essential to raising awareness amongst students and engaging and empowering them to define and realise their roles in achieving long term sustainability.
