As educators, we play a key role in shaping young minds to think critically, act responsibly, and engage actively with the challenges our world faces today—climate change, resource management, social justice, and global citizenship.
This course provides participants with practical tools, innovative methodologies, and inspiring strategies to incorporate the principles of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into everyday teaching and learning. Through interactive workshops, collaborative projects, and hands-on activities, teachers will explore how to make sustainability relevant across different subjects and age groups, while also strengthening their own capacity as agents of change.
By the end of the course, participants will not only gain a deeper understanding of sustainable development but also develop actionable plans to integrate sustainability into their curriculum, school culture, and community engagement.
