This paper focuses on how Higher Education Institutes can help to support graduates so that they can be more prepared for a Sustainable Future. Consequently, the paper contributes by offering insights on the strategies adopted and the lessons learned for other Higher Education Institutions wanting to consider similar initiatives that address the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). To provide context and examples, two different global perspectives are offered – both focusing on sustainability and
the SDGs. The first perspective focuses on a business school offering programs in Australia and Singapore and the second, features an Alliance comprising a network of ten leading universities from across Europe that joined together to transform higher education and strengthen their international dimensions.

As outlined in this paper, Universities and business schools in particular, are considered critical in addressing the challenges posed by unsustainable practices.The paper argues that, as Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) have a role inpreparing students to become informed, engaged, proactive citizens and ethical
leaders who can contribute to a more sustainable, global future and positive societal change they can also play a key role in advancing the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is intended that the insights offered provide other universities with strategies through the lessons learned to address the SDG goals both for HEIs in general, and in particular, to support university graduates when focusing on sustainability objectives in their future careers.
