Abstract
This paper discusses sustainable development issues in the higher education sector from the value chain perspective. An adapted value chain is proposed for developing countries that would reflect the specific context of the higher education sector of Poland and Vietnam. Secondary data were collected from two universities in Poland and Vietnam to do a comparative analysis of how sustainability is integrated into the educational value chain. Our analysis shows that the two cases of Poland and Vietnam are quite different in most of the supporting and primary activities when integrating sustainability issues in the educational value chain, except for training. Then recommendations of value co-creation activities in the value chain for higher education institutions in both countries are raised towards achieving sustainable development.
期刊介绍：
The mission of the Contemporary Economics is to publish advanced theoretical and empirical research in economics, finance, accounting and management with the noticeable contribution and impact to the development of those disciplines and preferably with practice relevancies. All entirety of methods is desirable, including a falsification of conventional understanding, theory building through inductive or qualitative research, first empirical testing of a theory, meta-analysis with theoretical implications, constructive replication that clarifies the boundaries or range of a theory for theoretical research as well as qualitative, quantitative, field, laboratory, meta-analytic, and combination for an empirical research. This clear priority for comprehensive manuscripts containing a methodology-based theoretical and empirical research with implications and recommendations for policymaking does not exclude manuscripts entirely focused on theory or methodology. Manuscripts that raise significant, actual topics of international relevance will be highly appreciated. The interdisciplinary approach including – besides economic, financial, accounting or managerial –also other aspects, is welcomed.
