Abschnitt zwei des Beitrags stellt zun{\"a}chst die Struktur und das Konzept freiwilliger Nachhaltigkeitsstandards vor. Abschnitt drei gibt einen R{\"u}ckblick {\"u}ber die Geschichte und Entwicklung der freiwilligen Nachhaltigkeitsstandards, w{\"a}hrend im Abschnitt vier ihre Verl{\"a}sslichkeit analysiert wird. Abschnitt f{\"u}nf gibt einen Einblick in die Rolle freiwilliger Nachhaltigkeitsstandards in der Entwicklungspolitik und Abschnitt sechs blickt auf die Einbindung freiwilliger Nachhaltigkeitsstandards in staatliche Regulierungsprozesse.

At the BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg in the project "ECO-Campus" different digitization concepts were developed. The Project is supported by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). The goal of the project is to share university content on sustainability with international partner universities and to establish the subject especially in the curricula of courses which traditionally pay little attention to sustainability concepts. The Eco Campus platform forms the link between the students and these materials. Due to the high number of international students, who use the newly created and customized Moodle instance, there is a high degree of heterogeneity. At the same time at each partner university lecturers from different disciplines and cultural backgrounds are teaching, so that the materials for the envisaged Flipped Classroom concept must be provided flexibly. The portfolio of digital tools within the learning platform is diverse. The instance includes different scenarios for synchronous and asynchronous communication and collaboration. In addition, various formative and video-based assessments, gamification approaches and various Video formats are used. The methods follow at the macro level (total of all courses) Bruner's approach of the spiral curriculum and in the micro-level (a course) Kolb's experiential learning cycle.}, language = {en} } @incollection{HansmannPalekhov, author = {Hansmann, Berthold and Palekhov, Dmitry}, title = {Задачи и функции добровольных стандартов устойчивого развития в глобальных цепочках создания стоимости}, series = {Management for Sustainable Development in Transitional Economies.

Although bio-based economies are not new, the concept of the bioeconomy has considerably evolved over the last decades. It has become a technology-driven economic paradigm expected to bring substantial benefits to people and the environment thanks to the potential of technological innovations to eliminate or mitigate some of the negative impacts caused by fossil resources. However, despite the considerable potential that several bio-based innovations are bringing to the market, the level of sustainability of the current and future state of the bioeconomy is uncertain, and the side effects during and after its implementation are often underestimated. This is especially relevant for the early stages of the value chain when biomass is produced and pre-treated. In this context, the chapter examines the nexus between sustainability and bioeconomy and analyses how the sustainable development framework has reshaped the understanding and purpose of such an economic paradigm. It explores the bioeconomy evolution as a concept and investigates how the circular economy, chemistry, biotechnology, and Power-to-X processes could support the transition towards the 'sustainable and circular bioeconomy'.}, language = {en} }
