Innovative Approaches to Sustainability Education at U.S. Universities
On December 16th, world leaders and their representatives attending the UN Climate Change Conference 2014, or COP20, adopted The Lima Ministerial Declaration on Education and Awareness-raising, referencing the importance of education for sustainable development. U.S. universities have already noted this need, and their responsibility to prepare the modern sustainability business, government, and other professionals with innovative technical and management approaches to lead in a rapidly changing world.
While governments decide how to include and implement sustainable education and climate awareness into classrooms, many already know of its incredible importance and value. Join the webinar on January 14th to learn how Arizona State University and other leading U.S. universities are providing future sustainability leaders with the education they need now, and the tools to move the sustainability field forward.
This webinar is designed for educators, practitioners, and parents of future leaders.
