Description

Transnational education emerges as a critical platform for advancing sustainable development. By transcending national boundaries and fostering the exchange of knowledge, values, and practices, transnational education offers opportunities to address complex sustainability challenges. Interdisciplinary perspectives on transnational education emphasize the integration of diverse academic fields, from environmental science and economics to sociology and policy studies, to promote equity, resilience, and environmental stewardship. This intersectional approach enriches educational experiences while empowering learners and institutions to drive sustainable change on a global scale.

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Transnational Education for Sustainable Development explores innovative, interdisciplinary approaches to advancing sustainable education across diverse transnational contexts. It examines the integration of sustainability into educational systems, curricula, and institutional governance, highlighting both theoretical and applied insights that offer a comprehensive understanding of how education for sustainable development can be reimagined and implemented across borders. This book covers topics such as higher education, student performance, and knowledge transfer, and is a useful resource for educators, policymakers, sociologists, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
