Welcome to a workshop about transformative sustainability learning! Participants will share experiences and co-create innovative curricular, pedagogical, and didactical approaches towards transformative learning in the context of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD).
Education stands as a pivotal force in steering societal transformation towards sustainable development. Acknowledging this, we engage with the endeavor to transform learning, recognizing its potential to empower individuals to challenge existing norms, enhance critical thinking, and inspire action towards sustainability.
Universities within the EUTOPIA Alliance are at the forefront of this transformative journey, yet they encounter various barriers in implementing such an approach. These workshops aim to convene individuals from diverse academic backgrounds to explore the opportunities and obstacles in integrating transformative sustainability learning (TSL) across disciplines.
Embracing a multi-disciplinary, intercultural, and trans-institutional perspective, these workshops offer a platform for collaboration, aiming to systematically embed sustainability principles across academic domains. Students are encouraged to participate actively, assuming the role of change agents alongside educators and researchers.
Participants will share experiences and co-create innovative curricular, pedagogical, and didactical approaches towards transformative learning in the context of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD).
Note: Workshop 2 will be tailored based on feedback from Workshop 1 to meet the needs and desires of participants.
