You can concatenate same column in postgres using group by function like the example below
update content_description set cross_curriculum_priorities = subquery.ccp
from (select kw.code, string_agg(kw.mapped_ccp, ', ') as "ccp" from acc_keywords_tagging_import kw where uri like '%cross%' group by kw.code) as subquery
WHERE subquery.code = content_description.ac_codeselect kw.code, string_agg(substring(kw.uri from length(kw.uri) for length(kw.uri)), ',') as "ccp"
from acc_keywords_tagging_import kw where uri like '%cross%' group by kw.code
