Abstract: The implementation of emotional education in the university setting holds significant importance within the contemporary educational landscape, as its knowledge and application have shown significant social impacts. Training in socio-emotional skills goes beyond the personal sphere of the teacher and has a positive effect on academic and social contexts. This is evidenced by the strengthening of team cohesion, the promotion of innovation, and the improvement of educational outcomes. There is a highlighted need to implement strategies to eliminate barriers in socio-emotional development, which underscores the urgency of institutional changes and collaboration to address emotional gaps. This study aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, highlighting the importance of enhancing the socio-emotional competencies of the teaching staff. The goal is to promote inclusive and equitable learning environments, in pursuit of contributing to well-being, equality, and social sustainability.
