Engineering plays a key role in achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which enables us to develop practical solutions to issues facing the humanity. Moreover, it is crucial to the development of new technologies, which drive the 4th industrial revolution represented by Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, Robotics, Quantum Computing, etc. The promotion and application of engineering for innovative technologies could contribute to sustainable development and help developing countries to close the technology gap which is essential to sustain the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda.

This serial of online open courses on Innovative Technologies for Sustainable Development aims to popularize the basic knowledge of innovative technologies to the public and introduce the key role of innovative technologies in promoting sustainable development.
