About Teaching for Sustainability
The grand sustainability challenges we face require action and adaptation by individuals and institutions. Too often, this adaptation is isolating and resource intensive. That's why we have launched the initiative Teaching for Sustainability.
We live in a world where the challenges of climate change, social inequality, economic instability, and geopolitical tensions are ever-present. As educators, we have a unique opportunity—and responsibility—to prepare our students to navigate these complexities. However, as an educator, you're likely juggling teaching and research, competing deadlines, shifting expectations, and limited time and support. Perhaps you wonder:
- What is our responsibility to prepare our students for a complex world?
- How can we integrate sustainability into curriculum?
- How can we make sustainability relatable and actionable for our students?
- What teaching methods are most effective?
- What resources are available to help us teach sustainability more effectively?
To address these questions and more, we've launched Teaching for Sustainability. This initiative serves as a hub for educators at Lund University, offering a platform for training, resources, and community building. The initiative intends to serve the larger community, in line with the strategic and sustainability commitments made by Lund University.
