Abstract

This collection originates from a workshop that was funded by the Higher Education Academy via the Interdisciplinary Teaching and Learning Group. Moves to bring together Subject Centre colleagues with an interest in interdisciplinarity coincided with the Academy’s response to the paper published by the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) on Education for Sustainable Development (ESD). Whilst different parts of the Academy’s Subject Centre Network had very different responses to how they may be able to engage with ESD, it was immediately clear that ESD is inherently interdisciplinary. that there was synergy between the two projects.
