IAU has been working on Higher Education and Sustainable Development (HESD) since it adopted the Kyoto Declaration on Sustainable Development in 1993.  The first Task Force on topics related to Sustainable Development was created in 1997.  Since that time IAU undertook several initiatives, contributed to many international conferences and held its own conference on this topic in 2003.  Key partners for IAU in this area have been UNESCO, ULSF, UNU-IAS among others.  IAU remains active by sitting on various committees (the Ubuntu Committee of peers, reviewing the Regional Centres of Expertise (RCEs); the UNDESD Reference Group, etc.)
