Facilitator Guide: Addressing Inner Dimensions for Sustainability in Higher Education

This guide Addressing Inner Dimensions for Sustainability in Higher Education is aimed at Higher Education faculties from diverse disciplines. The target group is interested in expanding their sustainability knowledge and perspectives, integrating sustainability into their teaching practices, and enhancing their sustainability-related teaching approach by addressing inner dimensions. By inner dimensions we understand individual and collective consciousness, awareness, or mindsets (e.g. values, worldviews and beliefs). The guide leads through an 8.5h course.

The course was co-developed through the international project “Transforming Higher Education for Sustainability by Fostering Inner Dimensions of Learners” (2022–2024).
