Co-led by Julia Römer and Kirsten Somerville

About

A monthly online reading group for practitioners, researchers, and students interested in creative approaches to education for sustainability.

Each month, we select an article which engages with this topic from an applied and/or theoretical perspective. Articles may relate to any educational context (formal, non-formal, informal education) or level (early years, primary, secondary, tertiary, adult education).

Sessions last one hour and will include a discussion of the paper as well as time to discuss other topics and questions you can bring along. To receive the Zoom link, or calendar invites please reach out to either Kirsten or Julia via email.
