Erasmus+ Course

Course overview

Sustainability is a topic that grows in importance for our future and goes far beyond what most of us first imagine while hearing about it. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development created by the United Nations sets 17 sustainable development goals and provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and in the future. In this course, participants will have a chance to explore sustainability from different points of view and develop strategies on how to raise the awareness of the students, encourage them to take action, and develop personal responsibility. As one of the sustainable goals aims on education with ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all, participants will also have a chance to practice and plan on how to implement sustainability directly in their work.
