The session will begin with a critical historical investigation of the rise of (E)SD before going on to explore ecotopian pedagogical possibilities, speculating about the following:

How might we enable students’ sense of pathways of transformative possibility that abound?

What teaching and learning methods and activities can further enhance key transformative capacities such as empathy, criticality and imagination (Kwauk and Casey 2021, p. 56), and ecological, rather than instrumental economic, sensibilities?

How to nourish hope in a better world which, though never guaranteed, is always possible through collective action?

  • Lunch, teas/coffees and pastries will be provided
