| Summary: | The sustainable behaviour of students in colleges depends primarily on education for sustainable development (ESD) in the curriculum. Many colleges in the world have adopted this perspective. However, Iraqi colleges still have a lot to do to change their curriculum according to sustainable development (SD). Therefore, the current study aims to explore the ESD in the curriculum for five colleges in Basrah, Iraq. The qualitative method was used based on the electronic records and documents available on the official websites of those colleges. The findings of the study demonstrate that all colleges have a very poor level regarding ESD in the curriculum. Several suggestions have been offered to the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in Iraq to shift towards sustainable development |
