The Global Teach-In campaign is designed to put Global Goals for Sustainable Development at the heart of education and catalyse the change needed to make this happen.
The Teach In calls upon educators across all stages of education to pledge to include the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within their teaching, learning, and assessment in your course(s)/classrooms during the two weeks of the 21 February - 4 March 2022.
If you would also like to be part of the Global Teach-In sign up now ahead of the launch on 21 February 2022 and you will be supporting tackling climate action.

Sustainability can form part of our day-to-day teaching
In a previous article, Simon Goldsmith, Head of Sustainability, discussed Sustainability: teaching with the world in mind. It shares the importance of building sustainability within our teaching to help solve some of the issues, society and the planet faces, by preparing our students to help solve the challenges the world faces.
Sustainable Development is one of the Dimensions of the university’s Curriculum Framework. To help our staff integrate sustainability in their teaching this Resource Bank has been created.
