Global Goals for Societal Transformation – Volume II: Driving Education Towards the SDGs  (Paperback, Seema Goyal)

This Book will explore the critical role of education in shaping a more just and equitable world. It will offer an innovative perspective on how education can be transformed to address the pressing social, economic, political, & ecological crisis and challenges of our time. Education has a key role to play in tackling global goals and climate challenges on a global scale, and teachers are at the heart of education’s response. Teaching for climate action demands that young people develop a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of climate change, consider climate matters from multiple angles, and feel empowered to transform their communities and society at large. It calls on the collective response of all teachers, no matter their subject area expertise and grade levels taught, to teach for climate, to consider refining and shifting current pedagogical practices and to leverage professional collaboration to enhance their practice and impact. As sustainability shifts from compliance to strategic priority, education equips society with the tools to adapt and lead.
