The SDG Accord

The 2025 SDG Accord Progress report is live. Please refer to this summary list of our 2025 learning and teaching themed case studies or scroll down to find individual case studies.

The SDG Accord is the university and college sector’s collective response to the sustainable development goals (SDGs). It was launched in September 2017 and is administered by the EAUC.

The purpose of the SDG Accord is twofold:

First it is to inspire, celebrate and advance the critical role that education has in delivering the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the value it brings to governments, business and wider society.
Second, the Accord is a commitment learning institutions are making to one another to do more to deliver the goals, to annually report on each signatory's progress, and to do so in ways which share the learning with each other both nationally and internationally. An objective is that sector SDG reporting metrics will be presented at the annual UN High Level Political Forum.

Here on the Sustainability Exchange you will find resources to support and inspire you on your SDG journey, for each the 17 SDGs. There will be examples of best practice, research by institutions on the SDGs, and annual reports with updated data.
