Abstract
The paper examines the roles of Economics educators in sustainable development in Nigeria, using a qualitative approach. The roles of Economics educators in sustainable development in Nigeria cannot be overemphasized. Sustainable development addresses the development of the present without jeopardizing the development of the future. Economics Educators are educators who are academically and professionally qualified to teach Economics. This study therefore highlights the roles of Economics educators in achieving sustainable development in Nigeria. The study also identifies the challenges faced by Economics educators in teaching Economics as well as possible solutions to these challenges. The findings of the study show that Economics educators play significant roles in achieving sustainable development in Nigeria. Regular training for Economics educators as well as good and attractive incentives for Economics educators among others were recommended.
