Abstract

Problem Based Learning (PBL) strategies aim to close the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world situations, especially in higher education. Studying six experiences of voluntourism (volunteer tourism) carried out in Lima, Peru, and the previously established tasks and stages of such projects, we propose a way of approaching Sustainable Development Goals to real-life pedagogical experiences. SDGs are used not only as objectives, but also as assessment tools for both projects and teaching opportunities, while becoming real part of the curricula.
