An online workshop that supports teachers with how to maintain a human rights approach when exploring environmental issues.
Modern Day Slavery
The abolition of the transatlantic slave trade began 200 years ago, and many schools marked this event. However, new forms of slavery are prevalent today.
Peace keeping
Peace and stability are central to sustainable development.
Conflict and the Global Arms Trade
The world cannot afford war. People cannot stand by while the numbers of war and environmental refugees soar, while poverty spreads like an epidemic and money for education, health, job training and other needed services are stolen to pay for weapons.
Biodiversity
A 2019 UN report by the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) has found that nature is declining globally at rates unprecedented in human history.
Resource Extraction
Countries that are rich in natural resources are often poor and suffer from high rates of inequality, corruption, human rights abuse, and environmental degradation.
Sustainable Fishing
Overfishing is the process of catching too many fish at once, so that the breeding population becomes too depleted to recover.
Marine Pollution
Our oceans have become our dumpsters. Marine pollution threatens the health of our coasts and ocean and it comes in many different forms.
Climate Justice
Climate Justice is the reality that it is those that contribute least to climate change (through their emissions) are the ones that are impacted first and worst
The Circular Economy
The circular economy is a process of minimising waste and making the most out of finite resources to achieve sustainable development.
