\"STAR<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A Symposium on Curricular and Scholarly Innovations based on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Exploring National and International Efforts Toward Equity, Coastal and Climate Futures, Sustainability and Social Justice, and Global Partnership for Sustainable Development.<\/p>\n\n\n

About the STAR Symposium<\/h3>\n\n\n

The Sustainability in Teaching and Research (STAR) Symposium was hosted at Monmouth University on June 2-3, 2023. The event consisted of a multidisciplinary representation of pedagogical and scholarly work anchored in the U.N. SDGs, primarily those that are geared toward equity (GOALS 1, 5, 8 and 10); environmental and climate action on land and below water (GOALS 6, 7, 13, 14 & 15); sustainability, inclusivity and social justice (GOALS 3, 4, 9, 11 & 16); global partnerships and the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development (GOAL 17); and the alignments with the other SDGs as relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The SDGs also unleashed a collaborative process that involves governments, businesses, civil society and citizens in a collaborative commitment to secure a sustainable future for all nations and peoples. Educational institutions, which serve communities by creating knowledge platforms and action plans for the betterment of society, are at the heart of the success of the SDGs and our common futures. The symposium was geared toward attracting and sharing information on pedagogical and curricular innovations and research projects that incorporate and implement the SDGs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The STAR Symposium was organized under the joint auspices of the Monmouth University Office of the President<\/a>, Office of the Provost<\/a>, Freed Endowed Chair in Social Sciences, School of Education<\/a>, Institute for Global Understanding<\/a>, Leon Hess School of Business<\/a>, Library Services<\/a>, Department of Political Science and Sociology<\/a>, Urban Coast Institute<\/a>, and Wayne D.
