Join EAUC and Learning for Sustainability Scotland at the next Education for Sustainable Development network meeting for educators in further and higher education.

About this meeting of the ESD Community of Practice

Welcome to our first official ESD Community of Practice Meeting – previously known as the ‘Topic Support Network’.

Through various speakers and discussions, we will examine learning in a time of AI, and have a look at this through an ESD lens.

Chaired by Scott Strachan, our ESD COP Covenor from the University of Strathclyde, we’ll hear from speakers at further and higher education providers about:

The social, ethical and environmental impacts of AI

An AI coach that helps you develop ESD lesson plans, designed to maximise efficiency and reliability

Teaching methods that develop human competencies and that ensure our students grow and learn – away from ChatGPT

University and college practitioners are welcome to join this event.

We’re delighted to welcome you to ‘Learning for Sustainable Futures’; a refreshed iteration of one of our highly successful online learning opportunities, which has, to date, attracted over 20,000 learners from 160 countries.

This course is open to all; especially those interested in education and learning for sustainability.

Join us from Monday 06 October to Sunday 09 November on a FREE, facilitated run of this course.

About the course…

Developed in partnership with the University of Edinburgh and the British Council, This course supports learners to consider a global issue important to them, to investigate its various causes and impacts, and to start to take informed action – in whatever social or political form that may take. This course may be useful to you on a personal level or in your workplace, if you seek to make changes in your own life or practice, or to inspire those around you to join you in taking action.

The Teaching and Learning Approaches section integrated into each week provides a dedicated space for discussions and reflection focused on pedagogy: supporting those who want to bring some of the activities and issues covered into their own educational practice.

This year, as a catalyst ahead of COP30 in Brazil in November, we will be offering this course in English, Portuguese and Spanish.

It's back! 'Live at COP30' is on its way...
2025-11-10 08:00 - 2025-11-23 17:00
Our FREE ‘Live at the COP’ MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) will return in November 2025 as COP30 gets underway in Belém, Brazil.

Since its first iteration in 2021 for COP26, over 20,000 people from over 170 countries have taken part in this collaborative, facilitated learning opportunity.

About the course

This course offers you an opportunity to examine what the COP process is, why it’s considered to be important, and reflect on how you can add your voice to the call for collective action for a sustainable future.

Throughout the course, we’ll share ‘live’ insights into the issues being discussed at COP30, as well as responses to the conference themes from children and young people, community groups and ministerial bodies, both nationally and internationally. Using these ‘starting points’, we invite you to reflect on what you have heard, watched and read, and think about what these conversations and issues mean to you.

Course content from ‘Live at COP30’ will remain open, free and accessible as a legacy resource for school, community and individual use beyond the Conference.

Click here to register your interest and we’ll be in touch as soon as the course is live.
