Dear Colleagues,

Our hearts are with everyone affected by the recent storm and the campuses that were impacted. We need to continue sustainability-related work in higher education. AASHE offers a variety of relevant webinars, workshops and other programs. We invite you to browse the listing and hope to see you at one or more of these upcoming online events. Programs like the Campus Decarbonization Academy are crucial at this time to make a measurable impact.

NEW RESOURCE

Members of AASHE’s Scaling Up Sustainability Across the Curriculum Community of Practice produced “Teaching Sustainability Competencies across the Disciplines” a guide for instructors and others who seek to integrate sustainability across the curriculum in higher education. The guide provides:

an overview of the similarities and differences among the sustainability competencies frameworks produced by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the Key Competencies in Sustainability Framework developed by the Global Council for Science and the Environment (GCSE).
support to integrate sustainability competencies into courses by identifying and developing curricular and pedagogical resources, resources for assessing student learning, and relevant examples of the scholarship of teaching and learning in this field.

All best,

Daita
