SUMMARY:Rethinking Scotland's National Outcomes Framework
DESCRIPTION:(Hybrid event – online or in-person at the University of Strathclyde\, Glasgow) \n\n\n\nJoin Scotland’s International Development Alliance\, the University of Strathclyde\, the SDG Network Scotland and other partners including Learning for Sustainability Scotland\, at a hybrid discussion on Monday 30 March\, 09:30–12:30 to share your views on reforming and renewing Scotland’s National Performance Framework. \n\n\n\nWhat is this event about?\n\n\n    \n                \n    \n    \n\n\nScotland’s National Performance Framework is being redesigned. We have a chance to influence what comes next – and make sure the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are at the heart of how Scotland measures success. \n\n\n\nThe Deputy First Minister has set out proposals for six high-level National Outcomes\, cross-cutting perspectives (or “lenses”)\, and a stronger focus on “ways of working” and implementation. \n\n\n\nThe NPF could be a vital tool for policy coherence\, helping Scotland deliver on the SDGs and align public and private action. Does the current proposal get us there? What is missing\, and what would make implementation real rather than rhetorical? \n\n\n\nWe will use the Government’s own prompts as a starting point\, including how your work connects to the proposed outcomes\, how cross-cutting perspectives should be reflected\, and what stronger accountability\, transparency and culture change could look like in practice. \n\n\n\nIf you care about how Scotland sets direction\, measures what matters\, and makes long-term decisions\, please come along – either in-person or online –  and add your voice. \n\n\n\nClick here to find out more and book your place.

SUMMARY:Have your say on...Learning for Sustainability in the GTC Scotland Accreditation Process and Requirements review consultation

SUMMARY:Educating for a Healthy Planet and People: Strengthening Partnerships on the Road to COP30
DESCRIPTION:Join us and colleagues from the Planetary Health Alliance as we explore the role of Planetary Health education in preparing societies for the urgent transitions demanded by the climate crisis; aligning with COP30’s agenda\, the broader UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)\, and building upon the Planetary Health Educational Framework\, developed by the Planetary Health Alliance. \n\n\n    \n                    \n                \n    \n    \n\n\nAs humanity faces converging crises—from climate change and biodiversity loss to pandemics and food insecurity—it is increasingly clear that the health of people is inseparable from the health of the planet. Planetary Health offers an integrated\, transdisciplinary framework that addresses these interconnected challenges by placing human well-being within the context of Earth’s natural systems.While COP30 (to be held in Belém\, Brazil in 2025) represents a critical political moment to advance climate action globally\, education remains a powerful yet under-utilised lever for long-term transformation. Embedding Planetary Health into education systems—from primary schools to professional training—can empower citizens\, leaders\, and communities with the knowledge\, values\, and skills necessary to co-create a sustainable and equitable future. \n\n\n\nClick here for full details and to reserve your FREE place. Who is the event for?\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n● Educators\, researchers\, and students● Policymakers in all related areas● Youth and student organizations● Civil society and environmental NGOs● Indigenous leaders and traditional knowledge holders● International organizations (e.g.\, WHO\, UNESCO\, UNEP) \n\n\n\nWhat are the expected outcomes?\n\n\n\n● A shared understanding of the importance of Planetary Health education for climate action.● A set of recommendations to feed into the official COP30 processes and legacy initiatives.● Strengthened networks among educators\, institutions\, and civil society committed to transforming education for a healthy planet.● A public-facing communiqué or declaration on Planetary Health Education for COP30. \n\n\n\nClick here for full details and to reserve your FREE place. Supporting partners and organisations:\n\n\n\nPlanetary Health AllianceUniversity of São PauloPlanetary Health Brazil NetworkScotland’s United Nations University recognised Regional Centre of Expertise on Education for Sustainable Development – Learning for Sustainability Scotland

SUMMARY:Monitoring Education for Sustainable Development in Colleges
DESCRIPTION:How much do we teach the students at our colleges about sustainability and how do we know if what we’re teaching is making a difference? \n\n\n\nThese are two critical questions facing the college sector as we support and enable a just transition. \n\n\n\nJoin us and EAUC Scotland as we come together with other college curriculum leads\, departmental heads\, lecturers\, principals\, and sustainability specialists to learn about best practice on monitoring and evaluating Education for Sustainable Development / Learning for Sustainability in your college.  \n\n\n\n\nThe workshop will centre around a six-step framework designed by and for universities\, a Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) funded project led by University of St Andrews and EAUC Scotland\, and how this can be adapted for college contexts. Have a look at the framework and the free handbook here.\n\n\n\nWe will hear case studies from Dundee & Angus College and South Devon College\, as well as stories and perspectives from participants.\n\n\n\n\nAs always\, this workshop is free for all EAUC members\, which includes all of Scotland’s colleges and many more across the UK. University delegates are also welcome; however please do note this event will focus on colleges. \n\n\n\nClick here to book your place.
