*3.3. Key Themes in SUD Education*

SUD is a problem- and solution-oriented field that operates in a complex environment of various communities of knowledge, non-academic stakeholders, and citizens. SUD education is not only about learning and producing knowledge, but also about goals, norms and visions of transition and transformation [27]. Therefore, we describe three interlinked themes that are vital in SUD education: transdisciplinary, reflective thinking and transformative learning. All these approaches demand the capability to think of problems, solutions, and their framing from multiple perspectives in various contexts.
