Curriculum support for educators
The Sustainability Teachers Academy team is committed to creating and providing curricular resources that span a diverse range of topics, including food systems sustainability, quality of life and well-being, decision-making for sustainability and much more.
Sustainability is an interdisciplinary topic; our lessons can be used across all class subjects. We hope the resources provided here support educators along all steps of their journey toward sustainable classrooms, schools and communities.
