How to integrate the SDGs in academic programs: lessons from a 3-year bottom-up approach at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid and European Alliance EELISA

Virtual Eastern Standard Time Zone, GA

Most University students are unaware of the SDGs; a significant percentage of Faculty aren't. There are many ways to overcome these barriers at Universities. This event is meant to discuss two methods that Universidad Politécnica de Madrid has pursued solely and jointly with other European Universities. Both are bottom-up but are guided and stimulated from the top.
