Abstract

This study analyzed the challenges faced in training professionals who are aware of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in light of the 2030 Agenda, from the perspective of representative authorities in Graduate Programs in Administration in Brazil. Using a qualitative exploratory approach, the study included Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) offering stricto sensu master's and doctoral programs as a criterion for inclusion in this research. Through an online questionnaire sent in 2023, the data were processed using the Atlas.ti software, which aided in the data analysis for this study. The results showed that the main challenges highlighted by the HEIs were the incorporation of the SDGs into their Graduate Programs through courses and activities; faculty resistance; a general lack of understanding of the 2030 Agenda; and the disconnect with students' research topics. This research also compared the findings with the study by Acevedo-Duque et al. (2023), which investigated the challenges of sustainable education in Graduate Programs in Latin American and European countries.
