Education for climate: from one-off projects to sustainable integration
In 2021 the European Commission put forward a Council Recommendation on learning for environmental sustainability and recently the Swedish presidency put skills for the green transition once again on the EU agenda. Both call for developing sustainability competences at all levels and in all types of education & training from the early years on. This event aims to identify best practices across Europe and explore how to move from one-off sustainability projects toward systemically integrating sustainability at all education levels. And what efforts are needed from the European Commission, governments, education institutions, companies and civil society to achieve this?
