What is it about?

This study examines whether learning about the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at university influences students’ personal values, specifically benevolence and universalism. These values reflect concern for others and the environment and are essential for building a more just and sustainable world. These educational interventions helped students become more aware of specific values. The study also found that the gender gap in certain values was reduced, particularly because male students’ awareness tends to. This research highlights how education can not only transmit knowledge but also help shape ethical and social attitudes. It confirms the university's role in preparing responsible citizens committed to sustainability.
