Embedding Climate Change in the Curriculum

Online

This interactive workshop will look at detailed examples of how UCU members are incorporating climate education in their classroom practice in a way which we hope you will find exciting and empowering. 

The full aims of the interactive workshop are to: 

1. understand why sustainability issues are so important to students and UCU members
2. explore how sustainability issues have been incorporated into a range of learning programmes
3. reflect on how to amend your own practice
4. consider how you could use your experience to support other UCU members around sustainability issues.

How the workshops will work 

The taught sessions will last for about 60 minutes, followed by 15-20 minutes of Q and A and discussion. In that case the total time commitment will be less than an hour and a half.  

 Live transcription will be available. If you have any other additional requirements, please let us know.
