Abstract

Sustainable development has been linked to the ecological, economic and social dimensions, and it appears from the outset that it is a complex task to include several very different aspects while planning and projecting. This multi-dimensional feature migrates to education sustainable development that is, as expected, a complex task. Traditional education based on specialization of subjects and unidirectionality of strategies has often proved to be insufficient. The present Track intends to be a space of debate of the challenges posed to Higher Education professionals as strategic partners for the development of different mindsets, able to tackle the real problems.
