Abstract :
Ecosocial sustainability challenges are complex and began attracting attention in the 1970s, precisely at the first United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, held in Stockholm in 1972. However, knowledge of the support, commitment and academic impact of the higher education institutions (HEIs, hereafter), specifically the postgraduate, on the principle of sustainability in the educational setting is little known or scarce. As such, the aim is to conduct a narrative review of the literature regarding the academic impact of graduate programs in Brazilian HEIs, using dissertations and theses, demonstrating support and the commitment to promoting sustainability and quality education. This is a narrative review study of academic articles published between 2016 and 2019. On the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations. The survey identified 18 dissertations and 7 theses that met the research goals. The articles analyzed from graduate programs of HEIs in different areas of Brazil demonstrated the ecosocial, intellectual and educational responsibility of these institutions, in compliance with the United Nations Academic Impact initiative. The narrative review shows that the articles produced on the impact of sustainability and quality education, especially by HEIs, were primarily case studies concentrated in specific institutions and the impacts on society and its experiential setting. The impact of academic studies on sustainability demonstrates the intellectual responsibility of HEIs in the face of ecosocial challenges.
