Abstract
Nowadays, many countries are searching for the best models of higher education that can ensure the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals. In the context of the Global Development Agenda, education is considered as a spatial system that has the potential to increase the effectiveness of harmonizing economic, social and environmental aspects of human life. The paper correlates the objectives of the fourth Sustainable Development Goal “Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all” and the strategic planning directions of Russia’s higher education system. It is concluded that there is a set of problems in the global agenda implementation due to the regional specifics of the formation and development of Russia’s higher education system.
Highlights
The paradigm of sustainable development, which has developed over the past halfcentury, has updated research in methodology for analyzing and evaluating the role of individual sectors of the economy in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) [2, 5, etc.]
In the information provided by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, there is no data on the implementation of instructions in this sphere [6]
Considering higher education services as a public good in the documents on sustainable development doesn't improve at present either
Summary
The paradigm of sustainable development, which has developed over the past halfcentury, has updated research in methodology for analyzing and evaluating the role of individual sectors (branches) of the economy in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) [2, 5, etc.]. The transition to sustainable development is impossible without the balanced development of countries' individual territories. The sustainable development of the national ecosystem necessitates the creation of an effective spatial ideology for the global agenda implementation. This paper is devoted to assessing the role of Russia's higher education in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. The regions with the most developed higher education system are the territories of attraction of a highly qualified labour force. Within the framework of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals defined, 232 indicators have been identified, according to which the achievement of the tasks of the Global Agenda can be assessed. In order to develop education in the context of sustainable development, the "Incheon Declaration and Framework for Action for the Implementation of Sustainable Development Goal 4" were adopted.
