AU  - Dave MOBHE BOKOKO 
AB  - The latest IPCC report highlights the irreversible environmental damage caused by human activity, emphasizing regional disparities and the increased vulnerability of countries in the Global South. This alarming context of the sustainability crisis urgently calls on universities to provide relevant knowledge and solutions. By integrating responsibility into their teaching, research, and research valorization missions, responsible universities play a crucial role in training decision-makers committed to SDGs, conducting research relevant to societal challenges, and developing responsible innovations. This article seeks to examine how universities in the Global South contribute to the formulation and implementation of solutions to address sustainability challenges in their regions. It highlights that the concept of a responsible university is especially significant for the Global South due to the disproportionate impacts of climate change, which exacerbates socio-economic inequalities.
