Estudiantes más sosteniblesincorporación de la agenda 2030 al aprendizaje servicio

Abstract

In September 2015, and within the framework of the United Nations, world leaders adopted the document “Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”. At the base of the 2030 Agenda are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their 169 targets. Universities play a fundamental role in achieving compliance with the SDGs. Service-learning is a method of linking learning with social commitment. It is learning by doing a service to the community. For this reason, this methodology is a very useful tool for aligning education towards the SDGs, to convert awareness into commitment. The objective of this work is to show different activities carried out in the Master of Chemical Engineering and in the Degree in Gastronomy and Culinary Arts of the University of Alicante, in which service learning and the incorporation of the Sustainable Development Goals have been used, in order to improve the environmental awareness of students. For the evaluation of these activities, the student peer evaluation methodology has been used.
