Abstract: Abstract As members of the Higher Education Sustainability Initiative (HESI)‘s Publishers Compact Fellows Action Group, the authors have come to recognize that achieving progress on the seventeen United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) requires advanced technology management. Specifically, how can we make better use of technology in the higher education and academic publishing worlds to support data gathering for the indicators and targets associated with each Goal? Also, how can we use it to make progress on the cause at hand, which is to bridge theory and practice in support of the UN’s SDGs? The authors outline some of the opportunities and limitations they see for technology to support achievement of these aims.
