Abstract

The paper provides an overview of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) evolution and implementation barriers in universities of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), focusing on challenges to the incorporation and institutionalization of ESD in two leading universities: Riga Technical University in Latvia and National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy in Ukraine. A generic matrix of options for integrating sustainability in higher education is developed to analyze and extend previous research on ESD for CEE countries. A number of common barriers is indicated and possible solutions proposed for an effective implementation of ESD in university curricula. (original abstract)
