Abstract

Higher Education (HE) institutions, also known as high-quality education, plays a critical role as knowledge producers for society. Higher Education institutions are lead actors in educating future leaders. They will serve as a powerful function for developing a more sustainable future. Based on educational programs, research, activities, community partnerships, and higher education institutions will contribute to increasing students’ awareness of the need for sustainable development. This report aims to assess the awareness, attitudes, and actions of educational institutions related to sustainable development, especially the Ho Chi Minh City University of Economics and Finance (UEF). Hence, they have multiple necessary activities to support the development of sustainable education. Universities should not only include sustainability education in their curriculums but should also incorporate sustainability aspects into their mission, vision, goals, and philosophy in their management structure.
