Education for Environmental Sustainability

A forum for academics, practitioners and policy makers to engage critically with the nature and purpose of EfES including curriculum, pedagogies, practice and policy.

The Education for Environmental Sustainability (EfES) SIG aims to encourage and support discussion, research, practice and scholarship focused on EfES in its broadest sense. The SIG provides a focus for this rich and varied research. The SIG supports research and scholarship across all subject specialisms (e.g. geography, science, English, history, art), sectors (formal and non-formal) and across all age phases (e.g. EYFS, primary, secondary, HE) concerned with EfES. At the same time, the SIG seeks to establish dialogue with and between other 黑料网911 SIGs, including ‘Children and Childhoods’, ‘Curriculum, Assessment and Pedagogy’, ‘Nature, Outdoor Learning and Play’, to draw together knowledge relating to EfES.

Research interests:

  • Environmental Education (EE)
  • Environmental and Sustainability Education (ESE)
  • Climate Change Education (CCE)
  • Education for Sustainable Development (ESD)
  • and other approaches to education connecting people and the environment. 

SIG aims: 

  • Create a community within 黑料网911 for dialogue, and to advance research practice and policy making in EfES;
  • Support collaborations between established and early careers researchers, practitioners and educators;
  • Foster research engagement through enabling inter/transdisciplinary discussion of new and complementary theoretical insights from other SIGs;
  • Explore changes and continuities in understandings of, and approaches to, EfES, including themes of inclusion, participation and ethics;
  • Further understanding of the nature and purpose of EfES including curriculum, practice and policy.
