Resumen

Este artículo presenta los resultados de una revisión documental acerca de las contribuciones que la comunidad de profesores colombianos de inglés ha hecho a los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) propuestos por la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas entre 2000 y 2023. Dichas contribuciones versan sobre cuatro objetivos concretos: educación de calidad, igualdad de género, reducción de desigualdades, paz, justicia e instituciones sólidas. Los resultados se generaron a partir de los estudios realizados por investigadores y académicos colombianos que han compartido sus investigaciones en revistas nacionales indexadas y avaladas por el Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación (Minciencias) con la comunidad de lenguas. En ese sentido, las revistas revisadas son HOW, Profile: Issues in Teachers' Professional Development, Íkala: Revista de Lenguaje y Cultura, GIST: Education and Learning Research Journal, and Colombian Applied Linguistics. Asimismo, este estudio es una investigación cualitativa-histórica que rastrea varios tópicos dentro de la comunidad mencionada durante los últimos 24 años. Los hallazgos reportan información específica respecto a las contribuciones considerando las acciones dentro y fuera de las aulas colombianas como espacios mediados por el diálogo y las acciones concretas, que buscan mejorar la educación, reducir las desigualdades y construir entornos de paz para promover instituciones más fuertes y una sociedad más equitativa.
