INTRODUCTION

The changes and development of a society will affect the evolution of language and the field of education through a paradigm shift. As the realm of education evolves according to current technological developments, language educators and practitioners need to embrace these changes and perceive them as an attraction and a source of excitement to explore new possibilities, always trying to think outside the box. Appropriately, this transformation goes hand in hand within the framework of global trends, particularly with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). ICoLLT 4.0 2024 provides the platform to leave our comfort zone and discuss how to embed SDGs into our language classrooms so that the teaching and learning of languages becomes even more meaningful.
