Earthducation

Earthducation is an adventure-learning program developed in response to a challenge by the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005–2014) to integrate the principles, values and practices of sustainable development into all aspects of education and learning.

The Earthducation team is traveling to climate hot spots on seven continents in search of local answers to two fundamental questions: “What is education?” and “How can education advance sustainability?”

The team will gather insights from people during each expedition and share them via an online community called the EnviroNetwork. Visitors to the EnviroNetwork will be invited to share their own stories as well.

During each expedition, the Earthducation website will provide updates, photos, and video feeds from the field. A key outcome of this project will be the creation of a global narrative of collective beliefs on education and environment that can serve as a foundation for embedding sustainability in learning at all levels in all cultures.
