Abstract :
[en] The United Nations (UN) unveiled the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development as a holistic plan designed to tackle global challenges. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) serve as a guideline and offer a roadmap to shape policies that promote conscious practices and sustainable principles. There has been limited commitment within architectural education and professional organizations in Tunisia. This article explores the incorporation of the SDGs into
architectural education in the country.
Our methodology involves examining the implementation of these goals at the
academic program and design studio levels.
The findings reveal the challenges of integrating the SDGs despite some efforts. The historical background of the Fine Arts system has shaped the educational landscape over the years in Teaching architecture in Tunisia.
This paper seeks to raise awareness of these goals among educators, students, and institutional leaders in Tunisia, creating a basis for specific integration of sustainability.
