A conversation between David Orr, Sam Crowell and Mirian Vilela
We are living in turbulent times, the current global pandemic is making evident that our social and economic system have generated complex challenges, for which we need a different way of thinking and doing to find effective solutions. Education is key for the needed paradigm shift, but not any type of education. It is time to re-think education as a driver for a more caring, just and sustainable world.
In this webinar, speakers will share their perspectives on what is the purpose of education to the current times and about what is the type of education could enable a change of worldview to address our complex challenges of unsustainability.
