Capacity building is ubiquitous in development and education discourse as a means of strengthening approaches to education, among other development goals. However, in crafting a new social contract for education founded in an ethic of care, reciprocity, and solidarity, we must not overlook the significant transformative potential of capacity…

Three decades ago, the term Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) entered educational discourse. However, it is important to note that the concept of "ESD" did not emerge from scholarly debates on education, rather as a tool to carry forward the agenda of sustainable development. As a result, it has been conceptualized in many…

Open educational resources (OER) are teaching and learning materials that are either in the public domain or published on an open licence which permits various forms of redistribution, reuse and repurposing.

A good education is the necessary element at the foundation of efforts to lift people out of poverty, reduce inequalities, tackle prejudices, skill the next generation to face a job market being transformed by technology, and train the scientists and leaders who will answer the enormous challenges society faces from climate change to pandemics and…

Education for sustainability demands transformative knowledge, which can be obtained through problem-based, project-organized learning (PBL). However, the integration of PBL and sustainability in higher education has not yet met the needs required due to the lack of application of a systemic perspective and strategy. In this literature review, we…

In the United States, the K-12 education sector too often exists in silos, separated from meaningful connections with community and innovation.

They are building ecosystems that bring together educators, researchers, funders, edtech…
