What is Sustainable Development Education (SDE)?

We believe SDE is the process of acquiring the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to build local and global societies that are just, equitable and living within the environmental limits of our planet, both now and in the future.

Welcome

Welcome to the website of the Sustainable Development Education (SDE) Network.

The SDE Network is a Scottish charity that exists to enable more of the education sector to undertake sustainable development education and to support those who are already undertaking it.  We also act as an umbrella body for the SDE community to enable our members to engage with government on issues related to SDE.

Natural Change Report

WWF Scotland is delighted to announce the launch of our unique new report. 

The Natural Change Project is an exciting new approach to creating leadership for sustainability in education.  The Natural Change Project works with people who hold positions of influence, offering them potentially life-changing experiences of wild places. It then goes on to support the growth of these personal experiences into leadership and action for a sustainable future.

This report explains the Natural Change Approach, outlines the changes that it catalyses and makes recommendations on how the Natural Change can be used to cultivate leadership for sustainability.

To find out more about The Natural Change and to download a copy of the report, please visit the Natural Change webpage at www.wwfscotland.org.uk/naturalchange

Open Sustainability in Education Resource

The OSIER project (Open Sustainability in Education Resource) is concerned with the open sharing of resources for the teaching of sustainable development and global citizenship.

With its academic partners, OSIER will build an online repository containing a large body of teaching and support resources to help with the sustainability and citizenship curricula in all four nations of the UK. The repository is open for all users, both to access materials and for submission of new resources. All materials will be fully accessible and re-usable, and made available under a Creative Commons licence.
