Paying particular attention to global development problems during the last stages of its programs, the North-Eastern Federal University named after M. K. Ammosov, within the priorities until 2025, identified the northern territories and the territories of the Arctic zone as a key geostrategic priority. To take a more active stanсe and gradually bring its initiatives to support the socio-economic development of the northern territories to the level of international cooperation, the North-Eastern Federal University named after M. K. Ammosov needs broader support from the regional community, as well as knowledge of how SDGs are understood at the university level. Also, there is a need for help from external stakeholders. The study “The university is an intellectual, innovative, and spiritual platform for the sustainable development of the northern territories,” conducted on a sample of more than 2,000 people, allowed us to form an evidence base for integrating the UN SDGs global agenda into the strategic development of the university.
