At this session, we will spend time actively working on a plan for 19/20 to continue adding to our toolkits for teaching and incorporating sustainability knowledge and practices into the classroom. Have you heard of, or taught using the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) before? Have you made your course paperless? Have you taught a class outdoors before? Would you like to hear from others that have done those things? We want to hear your ideas and share experiences.

If you are interested in attending, please RSVP via email to Falisha Rowe at falisha.rowe@humber.ca.
