Learning for a Sustainable Future

Climate change, gender equality, health, social equity, and inclusion are issues that affect us all, impacting human well-being and economic stability. How to live a sustainable life affects – and connects - us all. 

On this five-week course, you’ll develop an informed personal response to these major challenges as you’re supported to take positive actions towards a sustainable future. You’ll learn more about current global issues and consider how we can all act, personally or locally. 

The course has an additional strand for those working in formal or informal education, who want to bring some of the activities and issues covered in the course into their own teaching. 

You’ll learn practical ways to explore values and empower people to examine the ways in which they could take local action on global-scale problems. 

Working in this way, starting from where you are within your own context, this course will help you develop a new way of thinking for a sustainable future. 

In this course, you will learn about:  

• Disruption and reorienting our thoughts
• Thinking deeply: values, beliefs and local issues.
• Understanding broadly: systems thinking and wider positioning
• Taking action: from knowing to doing
• Future Thinking: reflection and planning

This course is ideal for those interested in keeping up to date with coordinated global action on climate change.
