Sustainability Report 2023

Since the summer semester 2023, Bielefeld University has had campus licences for the Sustain2030 simulation game, in which the use of various measures to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals is simulated in a fictitious citizens' council. The simulation game is designed to impart knowledge in the field of sustainable development goals and to familiarise students with the complex conflicting goals of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The playful process gives students a feel for the many facets and complexity of the different levels of sustainability. Sustainability is not only understood in ecological terms, but also integrates social and economic aspects. The licences have been available to all teaching staff, instructors, lectures since the summer semester 2023.

In the events "Integrating the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into teaching in a playful way - The Sustain2030 simulation game" as part of the staff development programme for researchers and lecturers, teaching staff, instructors, lectures were able to prepare for using the simulation game in their own teaching at the end of March and in September 2023.
