Distance Learning for Sustainable Development: A concrete application by
the World Agroforestry Centre
The
Context: according to the project, many attempts have been made to
adjust educational content so that it becomes relevant to sustainable
development. In practice, this has often meant the introduction of new topics
or subjects, for example natural resources or environmental management.
Relatively little emphasis has been placed, however, on the development of
education strategies that are based on the immediate context in which the
school is located.
This training course will deal with the use of natural resources as a way
of contextualising primary and secondary education and making teaching and
learning more relevant to the local situation. Tree nurseries in schools will
be used as examples to demonstrate this concept.
The training course is of interest and open to teachers in primary and
secondary schools, lecturers, education officials, representatives of NGOs and
CBOs as well as educators active in education for sustainable development.
There are no course fees to be paid if one's application
is accepted. The training course will take place from 17 September to
