“…Therefore, SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) appears frequently in these courses. SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities) appeared four times in total, including in (7) Introduction to Mao Zedong thoughts and socialism with the theoretical system of Chinese characteristics, (3) Ideological and moral cultivation and law, (6) Situation and policy, and (8) The outline of the modern history of China. These courses are all aimed at the welfare of the people, which will inevitably involve reducing inequality.…”

“…Therefore, we must rethink the relationships between people, which is of vital importance to the implementation of ESD. According to Brissett (2023), education is the primary driver behind development and is crucial for fulfilling the other Sustainable Development Goals [7]. Archana and Ajai (2022) have advocated for the application of SDGs in education, and insisted that higher education should be updated to meet modern expectations and satisfy the demands of society and the environment [8].…”

Under the guidance of the “Education 2030 Framework for Action”, China’s higher education is moving towards internationalization, and there is an upsurge in a movement to strive for the sustainable development of education. However, the level and condition of the integration of the Sustainable Development Goals in management disciplines in Chinese higher education are not well studied. In this study, the content analysis method was used to encode and analyze the curriculum standards of management disciplines in Chinese universities to provide empirical evidence regarding the sustainable development concept of higher education in China. We concluded the following: (1) In general, the SDGs are not embedded broadly and deeply in management disciplines in Chinese universities; however, SDG 8 (decent work and economic growth) is the most significantly relevant element, being integrated broadly in many programs and courses of management disciplines. (2) There is a diverse concentration of the integration of SDGs in different management disciplines.

“…We consider that active participation in the educational process of the adult population is essential for building a sustainable and competitive economy [9][10][11]. The argument for associating responsibility, especially with the activity rate of labor resources, is that accountability is one of the important qualities that an active person involved in daily professional and personal activities must possess.…”

This article addresses two perspectives of responsibility: as an element of taking action and as ethics towards one’s fellow citizens and the environment. These aspects have been used since the beginning of the pandemic. In this context, we wanted to determine the mechanism that triggers increased responsibility. We have considered two possible initial processes: one external and one learned from the family in early childhood or trained/learned during studies. Based on that, three concerns were brought to our attention. First, we targeted the impact of the pandemic on respondents’ degree of responsibility for their livelihoods. Second, we wanted to determine to what extent the new situation increased the interviewee’s involvement only in some activities. The third statement called into question the causal relation between the influence of extrinsic elements on a highly educated person’s degree of responsibility. The focus group was the active population of the industrial sector in the North–West border area of Romania. The data obtained are the result of the sociological survey implementation. The people in the region were subject to several new limiting external factors. The results show that the unique challenges up to that point made them more accountable for their actions in a situation that affected them directly (pandemic). It also can be underlined that lifelong education is important in forming healthy principles of responsibility.

“…This moreover since, despite transformative language used throughout the discourse and agenda, also the SDGs primarily espouse a pro-growth model of development and a utilitarian approach to education. For SDG 4 to contribute to sustainable development and transformation, there must be a shift in the dominant educational discourse so that issues of social and environmental justice are placed at the heart of educational priorities (Brissett & Mitter, 2017). A longer-term focus on the essence of learning in the context of sustainable development can inform a practicable education as the essence of ESD.…”
