Getting Ready for the SDG Club Activities

Delhi Public School Lava, Nagpur, is a member of the Global School Programme that recently launched its online toolkit for its members and all Advocate Alumni. 

The topic of the toolkit was  “From Commitment to Action: Integrating Sustainable Development into National Education Priorities. A Practical Guide for Policymakers, Practitioners, and Researchers.”

President  UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network and several other eminent personalities from the World Education bodies attended the webinar.

Educational communities need to identify locally relevant issues, skills, values, and behaviours central to sustainable development and then integrate Education for Sustainable Development into the national curriculum. However, this process is complex because every education system has its own set of standards, policies, and curriculum goals. 

Hence the Global Schools Programme (GSP)  worked with experts to create a comprehensive online toolkit that supports practitioners, policymakers, and researchers and locally relevant curricula on sustainable development and integrating their curricula into national priorities. 

Based on the outcomes of a research pilot project conducted in Ghana, Turkey, and Morocco, GSP  designed a guide for analysing policy and curriculum documents against sustainable development themes and then adapted or created new ESD curricula based on those outcomes. 

Ms Shahnaaz Ojha, Advocate Alumni, attended the webinar on behalf of the school.
