The Community of Practice is a welcoming and supportive network of staff from across the University exploring how we can integrate Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) into our curricula.

The group meets regularly throughout the year to discuss how we can embed sustainability and social responsibility more deeply within teaching and learning, creating high-quality learning experiences through knowledge sharing and support for putting ESD into practice.

We aim to support our whole University community to re-imagine sustainable futures, create opportunities to affect positive change and enable our students and staff to become leaders in sustainability and social responsibility.  The Community of Practice helps shape our collective approach to ESD and reports on its work to the University’s Sustainable Development Committee.

The ESD Community of Practice is convened by Dr Heather Barrett, Academic Lead for sustainability: h.barrett@worc.ac.uk.  Please contact her for further information on how to become involved with the group and to find out about planned meetings.
