Teaching for Sustainability

The course is interdisciplinary with a focus on Education and Sustainability, including the UN Sustainable Development Goals, SDG and with a specific focus on climate change and the ecological crises. The course literature and learning activities are aimed at developing students’ ability to learn and teach for sustainability. A main idea is to consider local and global challenges for sustainability with examples from Sweden, the students’ home countries and elsewhere. Students will develop their knowledge of environmental problems and ecological, social and economic perspectives on climate change and sustainability. The course will include compulsory lectures, excursions, seminars, workshops, study visits and project work.
