Pedagogy in operationalizing sustainable development goals

Resumo: This perspective article discusses the importance of pedagogy in operationalizing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The tourism industry is ever-growing with sustainability concerns. It also consumes a large-scale workforce to sustain this industry. “Can a pedagogy influence the process of workforce development and conditioning their mindset to be sustainability-focused to implement interconnected SDGs?” is a meaningful question to pose at this juncture. The SDGs are very relatable concepts throughout various hospitality and tourism curriculums. Thus, enforcing the idea of SDGs through structured or unstructured fashion in the curriculum can help generate knowledge, which eventually translates to operationalizing the ideas, leading to positive outcomes. As sustainability themes become more relevant and an absolute necessity in the tourism industry, changing the mindset during the process of workforce development could accelerate the operationalization of SDGs. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd
