Sustainable Quality Education: Innovations, Challenges, and Practices

This special issue belongs to the section “Sustainable Education and Approaches“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Education has historically played a fundamental role in our society; it is one of many social institutions that affect the socialisation of individuals, their integration into society, and their development into working life. The concept of high-quality education has also changed over time, adapting to new generations and the needs and requirements of their contemporary context.

Therefore, scientific debates concerning quality education, educational innovation, the challenges faced, and the different barriers to universalisation are both appropriate and necessary; such debates form the basis of this Special Issue.

Therefore, we warmly welcome high-quality articles discussing the quality of education at all levels (formal and non-formal) and in various areas of knowledge. Areas of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:

  • Evaluating education policies and their impact on quality;
  • Barriers and challenges to quality education;
  • Educational innovation at all levels and in both formal and non-formal education;
  • The results of teaching innovation at any level and in any area of knowledge: arts and humanities, sciences, health sciences, social and legal sciences, engineering and architecture;
  • Inequalities in educational quality and innovation for a fairer society;
  • Innovation projects that are sustainable and transferable.

This Special Issue will contribute to the existing extensive literature on innovation by focusing on the barriers and challenges to be overcome.
