What if education could be one of the most powerful drivers of sustainability transformation? Join us in this 3-days course to explore practical frameworks, sustainability competencies and inspiring pedagogical approaches for integrating sustainability into adult education. During this three-day international course, you will discover how sustainability can be embedded into educational organisations, teaching practices and everyday learning experiences. Through practical examples, collaborative learning and real-life case studies, participants gain tools for supporting learners in developing the competences needed for a sustainable future.
What will you learn? During this course, you will explore key frameworks for sustainability education and deepen your understanding of sustainability competencies and their role in adult education. Through workshops, discussions and outdoor learning experiences, you will examine how education can support sustainability transformation and help learners develop the knowledge, skills and values needed for a sustainable future.
You will also gain insights into place-based and experiential learning approaches, reflect on human–nature connectedness, and learn from an example of implementing a sustainability roadmap in the TVET sector.
