Call for Papers: Integrating Sustainable Development Goals into the Classroom (Spring 2025)

Education plays a pivotal role in achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) proposed by the United Nations. Teachers have the responsibility to raise awareness and educate younger generations about today’s and tomorrow’s environmental, social, and economic challenges. How can the SDGs be integrated into teaching practices to foster greater awareness of global issues and inspire students to take concrete actions?

This issue of EngagED Learning magazine will highlight innovative pedagogical approaches and initiatives that help students understand and actively engage in achieving the SDGs. From classroom projects to community collaborations and the use of digital tools to enhance student learning, we explore how teachers can contribute to a more sustainable future.

Key questions to explore:

• How can the SDGs be integrated across different school subjects?
• What digital tools can help students better understand complex concepts such as climate change, social justice, or natural resource management?
• How can we inspire students to become engaged and responsible citizens, ready to make an impact in their communities?

✍️ Grab your pen (or your keyboard!) and contribute as an author to the upcoming spring issue of Engaged Learning magazine, or share your experiences with inspiring initiatives related to this theme.
