SDG subjects and courses

UOW is committed to meaningful education about the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We integrate sustainability education opportunities across our curriculum.

UOW's commitment to SDGs: a brief history

In 2015, 194 United Nations Member States adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, identifying 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as an urgent call to action to protect the planet and improve the lives of all people. The 17 SDGs encompass the need to provide all citizens of the world with a sustainable planet and everyday necessities with a deadline of 2030.

In 2019, UOW signed the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) Higher Education Commitment, joining an innovative group of Australian and New Zealand Universities. UOW is actively working towards incorporating these vital Global Goals into our educational offerings. This will ensure that our students are well informed global citizens that can continue to contribute to realising sustainable development throughout their studies and careers by being proactive, responsible and educated in relation to how realising the Global Goals will better the world.

Our course and subject offerings for the SDGs within each faculty are provided below.

Health Promotion is the process of enabling people to take control of and improve their health through behaviour change. This subject introduces students to the concept of health promotion, including existing theories and models, and demonstrates how these can be applied in particular settings (e.g. health services, work sites, schools and communities). Health promotion programs that target dietary change (ie. nutrition promotion) require measurement of dietary intake, for both planning and evaluation thereof. This subject examines the various methods used to measure dietary intake in populations and healthy individuals, as well as how to assess these measurements against national and international standards, for the purpose of developing appropriate health promotion strategies. Topics covered include validity and reliability of different dietary assessment methods and the use of different food composition databases for nutrient analyses, as well as the analysis of body composition and estimation of energy requirements, and interpretation of national survey data for monitoring and surveillance of the nutritional status of populations.

About the subject

This subject provides the theoretical foundation of modern microeconomic analysis by building upon the basic concepts covered in introductory microeconomics. Topics include the free market system and its operation under market regulation, and the imposition of excise taxes and subsidies. The theory of consumer behaviour is developed and applied to household choice problems, the index number problem, methods of taxation, and intertemporal choice. The theory of production and its costs is discussed, and used to develop models of optimal choice by producers in the long run and short run, including optimal output expansion, optimal input substitution, responses to technological change, and economies and diseconomies of scale. Models of market organization are studied with emphasis on monopoly power, oligopoly (including models of Nash, Cournot, Bertrand, and Stackelburg equilibria) and monopolistic competition. Welfare effects of market behaviour and regulation are analysed. Game theory is introduced and applied to simple problems of strategic choice in duopoly markets. The nature and consequences of asymmetric information are studied (including adverse selection, moral hazard, the principal agent problem, and signalling).

About the subject

This subject is an introduction to the specialist educator’s role in promoting inclusive and evidence-based practice for individuals with developmental disability and neurodivergent conditions. Students critically examine the history and models of disability to identify how these have shaped 21st century attitudes, policies and practice. Students analyse the way that the roles of specialist educators have changed in the 21st century and examine the ways that specialist educators, including special educators and developmental educators, can utilise assessment, evidence-practice and consultation and collaboration to support individuals with disability and to provide programs and opportunities consistent with a human rights model of practice. Students engage with current research to identify perspectives of individuals with disability and their families about the programs and practices that will enable them to learn and achieve outcomes across the lifespan and explore barriers that inhibit the inclusion of individuals with disability before identifying steps they can take to eliminate these barriers. Lastly, students explore and develop knowledge of neurodivergent conditions and developmental disability including aetiology, diagnostic criteria, characteristics and the influence of biological and environmental factors and identify evidence-based pedagogies and practices that support the inclusion and learning of individuals with differing diagnoses in education and community settings.

About the subject

The aim of this subject is to examine a range of behaviour management models and the conceptual foundations upon which they are based. Challenging behaviours pose barriers to the successful engagement and achievement and wellbeing of individuals in those settings and can impact the interactions between individuals. When parents/carers, teachers or other professionals develop a greater understanding of the factors behind such problems and better strategies to prevent and manage challenging behaviours they can increase the opportunities for learning, as well as the self-efficacy and self-determination of all in those settings.

Beliefs and factors that inhibit bi-directional communication between neurodivergent individuals and others in different environments will be discussed including personal beliefs which may influence engagement and practice with autistic and neurodivergent individuals. Students will use of formal and informal assessment to identify communication needs of autistic and neurodivergent individuals and to support the use of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) skills and strategies in different environments. Students will demonstrate knowledge of research inorder to utilize interdisciplinary processes to develop and implement transition plans and programs that support autistic and neurodivergent individuals to successfully undertake horizontal and vertical transitions. Students will examine ableist and traditional models of practice in order to identify recommendations for using a learning-based approach to transform future practice.

About the subject

This subject builds on the subject EDMP910 with a particular focus on literacy education in the middle to upper primary years. Taking a socio-cultural approach to language and learning, the subject examines the nature of literacy as contextualized to domains and Place, and effective literacy pedagogies, including explicit teaching, guided practice and independent use of knowledge and skills, in contemporary primary schools. Students will explore these pedagogies in the context of the distinct literacy practices of Science, HSIE and English and the cross-curricula priorities of Sustainability and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures as they emerge in the middle to later primary years. In doing so, students will engage with concepts of environmental sustainability and climate change as necessary to their future professional and civic responsibilities. Students will take on the role of both teacher and teacher researcher as they gather and analyse educational information to inform literacy pedagogies that address issues of social justice and sustainability.

About the subject

The production, distribution, and consumption of food shapes communities, environments, and those who eat it. Through the way we distribute and sell food, it even shapes cities and transport networks. Through the way we grow and transport food, we consume prodigious amounts of energy and finite resources, raising questions of sustainability. This subject tracks these connections - from the farmer, to the rural community, to the factory and supermarket, to the consumer, and to international trade networks. In it you will consider how and why we produce and consume food the way we do, what the consequences are of this for farmers, communities, and the environment, whether there are alternatives, and how we might foster resilient food production systems, communities, and landscapes. A full day fieldtrip to lllawarra farms and/or food processors on a weekend may form part of this subject.

The subject presents geographic and social science approaches to disaster resilience in cities and regions. In it, students will examine how geographical concepts of social diversity, political ecology and vernacular adaptation can enhance resilience thinking, policy and practice. The subject will focus on developing student skills in analysing disasters as linked socio-ecological systems and apply conceptual lenses and analytic tools to identify vulnerable populations and adaptive capacities shaped through relations of power. Through topics such as social vulnerability to climate change, the socio-ecological nature of bushfire risk in peri-urban zones and the gendered and racialised dimensions of intense weather events students will identify how and why disasters emerge, document their geographically uneven expression and identify opportunities for social justice in complex adaptive systems. They will also weigh-up the implications of these approaches for resilience thinking, policy and practice.

About the subject

Consumer Behaviour involves gaining a greater understanding of the consumers as individuals by studying the influence of perception, learning and memory, motivation, attitudes and attitude change on their behaviours. Other lifestyle influences are also considered such as demographics, household structure, group influence, social stratification and cultural variance. Additionally the content of this subject focuses upon consumers as decision makers, involving an examination of the entire purchase process. All of these components are examined in relation to how they can be influenced through marketing strategies. Other areas explored include how marketing practices can be used to influence consumer behaviour for the benefit of society as a whole (social marketing) rather than purely for commercial gain.

About the subject

SEA100 introduces students to ocean conservation and development, starting with a broad introduction to activities, values and stakeholders. A recent study published in Science, analysed satellite data and determined that industrial fisheries now cover 55 per cent of the World’s oceans: an area four times larger than the terrestrial area devoted to agriculture. In addition to fisheries, our oceans provide crucial highways and oceanscapes for shipping, oil and gas, seabed mining, blue carbon, coastal development, tourism and defence all of which must balance conservation and development imperatives as they navigate and exploit our marine environment. SEA100 leads students through a number of case studies to build knowledge of human interaction with the marine environment, critical values, ocean conservation and development challenges, and develops student expertise in critical thinking , research skills and problem solving. Guest speakers from the ANCORS network will illustrate case studies and demonstrate problem solving and engagement strategies. Lectures will be delivered online, while fortnightly workshops will engage students in analysis, problem solving and communication.

Students will learn about the transfer of science to policy, global science projects such as the UN Decade of Ocean Science, and how to conduct science fairly and equitably. Sustainable and equitable management of the oceans is key to human well-being. To achieve this, a global regulatory framework, based on science needs to be in place. SEA 300 enables students to critically think about human resources use, social problems, and science. By leading students through a diverse range of topics linked to the ocean, global politics and science, students will strengthen their research and problem-solving skills. The course will include guest lectures and panel discussions with scientists, environmental advocates, and industry stakeholders, and to build students’ understanding of the role of science in ocean policy. Lectures will be delivered online, while fortnightly workshops will engage students in analysis, problem-solving, and communication.
