Σύντομη περίληψη
The world is challenged by several risks, like climate change, biodiversity loss, or sufficient supply with needed resources. These developments are conceptualized by different organizers for a sustainable future, finally addressed by the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) issued by the United Nations in 2015. Most of these SDGs are directly, or indirectly, connected to questions of science and technological developments. The talk will discuss selected concepts of sustainable development and how addressing them should have impact on modern science and technology education, from early childhood, via secondary and higher education, towards lifelong learning.
