The green shift in teaching emphasizes the importance of ecological literacy and encourages students to develop a deeper understanding of environmental issues and their role in creating a more sustainable future. In this new initiative – “Nordic Green Shift in Education”, we understand the term “green shift in teaching” to refer typically to a shift in educational practices and approaches that prioritize environmental sustainability and ecological awareness. It involves integrating sustainability principles and environmental education into the curriculum and teaching methods.

Our main objectives are:
– to create an innovative quality network for educators primarily in the provision of VET within green growth, climate change and sustainable development.
– to produce a “Green Shift Teaching Handbook” which offers practical “green shift teaching” modules for teaching and learning pedagogies and methodologies, from multi- and inter-disciplinary approaches
