Learning for Sustainability is about working together to create a flourishing, equitable and sustainable world. It is an entitlement for all young people in Scottish Education. On 25th February 2021 LfS Scotland and YouthLink Scotland hosted the second in a series of webinars, joined by more than 70 teachers and youth work practitioners from across Scotland . Participants discussed how Schools and the Youth Work sector can work effectively in partnership, supporting young people to meet future challenges and become active change agents for a better world.
Hosted by Betsy King, LfS Scotland and Jenni Snell YouthLink Scotland, a panel including Julie Beckett, Education Scotland; Kate Allen Scotdec and Lesley Kettles, St Modan’s High School and Stirling Council, inspired a conversation about the important place of Learning for Sustainability in schools and what youth work brings to this.
