Abstract
The slowdown in global progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) highlights the need to develop systems thinking, sustainability literacy, and ethical responsibility among higher education students. The article presents an innovative educational approach, applicable in any university context, which involves the analysis of interdependencies between SDG 2: Zero Hunger and the other SDGs. The methodology included teamwork, brainstorming, bidirectional analysis of the links between SDG 2: Zero Hunger and the other SDGs, the production of visual materials and public presentations, followed by interactive debates and collective feedback. The results showed that this method significantly contributed to the development of critical thinking, the capacity for systemic analysis, and a deep awareness of global issues related to food security. The perception of the students was predominantly positive, they appreciated the practical usefulness and personal impact of the educational activity. The conclusions support the transferability of this educational method in various academic contexts, demonstrating that the analysis of interdependencies between SDGs represents a valuable tool for developing transversal skills and forming a sustainable ethic necessary for future professionals involved in addressing the complexity of global challenges.
