Charting the Path towards Sustainability in Higher Education

A Multi-Dimensional Study of Attitudes, SDG Practices, and Institutional Challenges in Haryana. PhD Synopsis Presentation.

This slide outlines the presentation agenda with five key sections. They include: 1. Introduction & Need, 2. Theoretical Background, 3. Literature Review & Research Gap, 4. Objectives & Methodology, and 5. Limitations & Expected Outcomes.

Presentation Agenda

1. 1. Introduction & Need
2. 2. Theoretical Background
3. 3. Literature Review & Research Gap
4. 4. Objectives & Methodology
5. 5. Limitations & Expected Outcomes

The Theoretical Background slide outlines three key theories: Value-Belief-Norm (VBN), Social Cognitive Theory (SCT), and Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). VBN links values to pro-environmental behavior, SCT emphasizes learning and self-efficacy, while TPB predicts intentions via attitudes, norms, and control.

Theoretical Background

• Value-Belief-Norm Theory (VBN): Links values to pro-environmental behavior.
• Social Cognitive Theory (SCT): Emphasizes learning and self-efficacy roles.
• Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB): Predicts intentions via attitudes, norms, control.

The slide identifies a research gap in the limited, fragmented studies on UN SDG integration in Haryana's HEIs, lacking multi-dimensional analysis of attitudes, practices, and challenges. Its objectives are to assess faculty and student attitudes toward sustainability/SDGs, map current practices in these HEIs, and identify implementation barriers.

Research Gap & Objectives

| Despite global emphasis on UN SDGs, limited studies explore their integration in Haryana's Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). Research is fragmented, overlooking multi-dimensional analysis of attitudes, practices, and institutional challenges. | 1. Assess attitudes of faculty and students towards sustainability and SDGs.

1. Map current SDG integration practices in Haryana HEIs.
2. Identify key challenges and barriers to effective SDG implementation. |

The slide outlines a mixed-methods approach using surveys and interviews in Haryana universities, with a key limitation being its regional focus on Haryana. It highlights expected outcomes of policy recommendations for SDG-aligned sustainability, ending with a call to implement SDG practices in higher education today.

Methodology, Limitations & Outcomes

**Mixed-Methods Approach

• Surveys & Interviews

in Haryana Universities Limitations

• Regional Focus (Haryana)

Expected Outcomes

• Policy Recommendations

for SDG-Aligned Sustainability Closing: Sustainable futures begin here.

Call to Action: Implement SDG practices in higher education today!**
