SYSTEMS CHANGE FOR A SUSTAINABLE WORLD: BECOMING A CHANGEMAKE IN YOUR COMMUNITY

Compass Education Level 2 Workshop

Workshop Overview

Do you want to deepen your systems thinking practice to make systemic change in your community?

In this 2-day workshop, participants will explore the challenges and means of integrating sustainability values, principles and practice into education. Special emphasis is placed on the use of systems thinking tools to bring about change and enhance teaching and learning. Systems thinking tools and methods will be demonstrated and participants will have the opportunity to explore their practical application within their own subject disciplines and as agents of change for school transformation.

Change-making and learning are both enhanced when working together with others! You can collaborate with your team to deepen your learning and use it to create sustainable action plans you can implement together in your community.
