How can sustainability be meaningfully integrated into higher education teaching?
In this webinar, held on 21 May 2026, Professor Rüdiger Hahn shares practical approaches to help educators introduce sustainability across disciplines, structure key concepts effectively, and embed sustainability into everyday teaching.

Key takeaways from the session:

  • Flexible integration: Sustainability can be taught as a standalone subject or embedded into existing disciplines such as marketing, finance, or operations.
  • Engaging students is key: Interactive methods such as discussions, role plays, and real-life case studies help students better understand complex sustainability challenges.
  • Data-driven learning: Using real-world data encourages critical thinking and helps students form their own informed opinions.
  • Practical application matters: Both successful and failed sustainability examples are valuable to illustrate real-world trade-offs.
