Abstract:RESUMEN: En el campo de las políticas educativas, la falta de consenso ha demostrado ser crítica para el progreso de las reformas.

“…Social movements are manifestations of groups of people who show their approval or dissatisfaction, as a result of the characteristics of a society [1,2]. These social movements arise from inequalities related to the socioeconomic model [3,4].…”
Social movements and the consequences of the current health crisis resulting from COVID-19 have deepened social injustices and inequities, which can be addressed through the benchmarks set by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This research is related to the perspective of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) as social transformation agents. The purpose of this research is to create a scale to measure students’ perception of the social responsibilities developed by HEIs from the SDGs’ perspective. A matrix solution was found after Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) composed of four dimensions. The constructs that form the four dimensions can be used to design strategies which contribute to the SDGs’ goals, for which it is necessary to have the opinions of the actors that are part of the educational community. Future research should consider carrying out comparative studies according to sociodemographic variables for a better understanding of the social phenomenon.
