Description

Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is one of the core elements of Learning for Sustainability and, as such, is featured in the GTCS Standards for Full Registration, Curriculum for Excellence and How Good is Our School 4. ESD is also an international approach that is used to address global challenges relating to social, economic, and environmental sustainability.

In this session, participants will engage with the Sustainable Development Goals and reflect on how these can be integrated into their professional practice. This will be complemented by an exploration of pedagogical approaches that can be used to give learners the knowledge, skills and agency needed to address both local and global sustainability challenges. Through this, participants will reflect on their own stance towards local and global issues and how this is reflected in their practice.

This course is suitable for the following participants: primary teachers and secondary teachers.
