Not Teaching Sustainability Implicitly Teaches Unsustainability


Every student that attends the University of Edinburgh has the capacity to contribute either to sustainability or to unsustainability. In fact, the contribution our students can make either way is greater than the average citizen due to Edinburgh graduates often securing leadership roles.

To achieve our institutional mission of supporting social justice, it is therefore essential that all students develop attributes to support sustainability through teaching and learning, rather than retaining norms that have led our planet to experience new extremes such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and economic inequality.
