The Neo-humboldtian concept of the University towards the aims of sustainable development

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to show how the aims of the politics of sustainable development could be implemented within the organizational and cultural tasks of a university. The paper is based on the contemporary tradition, called here “neo-humboldtian model of a university”, which included three missions: education, research and “the third mission” – the service for the external stakeholders. Then, the article examines how the post-humboldtian university can implement the aims of sustainable development.
