摘要
The Sustainable Development Goals Report (2022) highlights the urgent need for concerted action on a global scale to put the world on track to sustainability. Universities are the primary social actor of civil society and are essential in facilitating the world to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs). This study clarifies the sustainability approaches of Malaysian public universities. Analysis of the sustainability reports revealed several key insights. First, there was varying focus on the SDGs between the universities. Secondly, three similar themes of the sustainability approach were found, namely: (1) impart knowledge, (2) technology breakthrough, and (3) strategic alliance.
