| Abstract | "Transforming Education for Sustainable Development documents and disseminates learning around education for sustainable development and associated pedagogical approaches, techniques and experiences that have been generated across the Master of Development Practice (MDP) Global Association over the past 12 years. It integrates the participation and perspectives of a diverse group of faculty, alumni, students, and partners. The book applies a critical, analytical lens to discuss experiences across 35 prestigious universities to provide an invaluable synthesis of key findings with a summary of forward-looking implications for global education for sustainable development. Chapters are developed around key dimensions of the MDP program, exploring how it has evolved since its inception in diverse regional and institutional contexts. With its focus on preparing future development practitioners for important roles in a wide range of organisations involved in different facets of sustainability, the MDP program offers a unique lens through which to learn best ESD practices and challenges faced. The book features contributions from across five continents, showcasing a broad range of educational strategies in different professional and cultural contexts to emphasise locally appropriate solutions. This will be an insightful and important read for professionals in higher education for sustainability and sustainable development, in addition to researchers, policymakers and practitioners involved in non-profits, NGOs and international organisations"-- Provided by publisher. |
