What is the role of schools of education in the face of global environmental challenges? Launched in 2015, the Teachers College Working Group on Environmental and Sustainability Education aims to address this question by bringing together faculty, students, and staff from across the College. We define Environmental and Sustainability Education as an interdisciplinary pedagogical movement that examines the interactions between environmental, social, health, and economic issues that together promote the long-term health of complex living systems.
