Teaching and Learning for a Sustainable Future
is a multimedia professional development programme for educators published by the UNESCO programme on educating for a sustainable future. It contains 100 hours (divided into 25 modules) of professional development. It is rooted in a new vision of education that helps us better understand the world in which we live, addressing the complexity and interconnectedness of problems such as poverty, wasteful consumption, environmental degradation, population, health, conflict and human rights that threaten our future. www.unesco.org/education/tlsf/
