Abstract Higher education has notable contributions to make to processes of change towards global sustainability ? be they of local, regional, national, or international scale. Intensified global debate on higher education for sustainable development (HESD) has been taken up by the Second International Conference on Higher Education for Sustainable Development July 2007, jointly organised by the Autonomous University of San Luis Potosí, Mexico (Universidad Autónoma de San Luis Potosí, UASLP) and the Leuphana University of Lüneburg, Germany, supported by the Mexican and German Commissions for UNESCO .This book reflects current debates and experiences in HESD with special attention to the relation between the North and the South. It scrutinises inter alia the role of universities in society, innovative learning and teaching experiences, impacts of teaching and learning methods, institutional culture and organisational/governance structures, gender issues, main-streaming sustainability, and university and community linkages.
