The purpose of this study is to study and evaluate strategies and tactics for the development of intercultural competence among students in the framework of education in the field of sustainable development. The originality of the work lies in the fact that it combines and explores theoretical ideas about intercultural competence and education for sustainable development.  The theoretical significance lies in the study of modern theoretical views on the idea of intercultural competence with an emphasis on its functions within the framework of sustainable development. The work confirms the link between the global Sustainable Development Goals and the development of this competence. The usefulness demonstrates how the results of the study can be applied to create educational initiatives and implement advanced teaching strategies in colleges and educational institutions
