Seizing the Moment: Learning for Sustainability and Youth Work
The impact of Covid19 on young people continues to be immense, and the youth work sector has a vital role to play in supporting their educational, social and emotional recovery.
On 6th October 2020, LfS Scotland and YouthLink Scotland hosted a webinar joined by youth work practitioners from across Scotland, exploring the role of Learning for Sustainability in enhancing youth work practice to support recovery and beyond Covid19.
The event provided an opportunity to:

- explore the benefits and opportunities of getting young people involved in Learning for Sustainability
- share and celebrate examples of youth work from around Scotland
- inspire new thinking and approaches for engaging young people
- help find the support needed to take action
