Abstract

The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide a collaborative framework for sectors worldwide to pursue a just, prosperous, and environmentally sustainable future. This chapter investigates the application of design thinking as a pedagogical strategy to equip students with the skills necessary to meet sustainability challenges. Rooted in a human-centered approach, design thinking seeks to intimately comprehend complex challenges to create solutions that bolster the welfare of both individuals and communities, thus enabling students to act as agents of societal change. Introducing academic design thinking pedagogy (ADTP), this chapter is tailored to the context of higher education and articulates its phases to provide educators with actionable insights on its implementation.
