概要 Purpose
This study aims to enrich an understanding of the value of integrating Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into an English curriculum and its implications at an international HEI in Japan.

Findings
Data analysis revealed a generational gap: students valued the SDG-focused curriculum more than EFL teachers. This does not imply that EFL teachers did not value it, as both groups found SDGs motivating and consistent with the university’s mission. However, students viewed SDGs as interesting, interdisciplinary and relevant to their future, while teachers expressed concerns about the suitability and difficulty of the SDG topic. Document analysis showed the material to be difficult for students at the Intermediate level.
