Dear colleagues

This information has been previously circulated, however as we approach March, it might be worth doing so again.

Can you please circulate the follow text to staff teaching on our UG/PGT programmes, and include the attached flyer in the email?

***************************************

Are you teaching the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in your curricula? Pledge to teach the SDGs this March.
The SDGs Teach-In is a campaign to place the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and therefore sustainability, at the heart of all stages of education, and across all disciplines.

Run by Students Organising for Sustainability UK (SOS-UK) since 2018, the SDGs Teach-In is an annual campaign which calls upon educators to include the SDGs within their teaching, learning and assessment during the campaign (and beyond!). The Teach In is open to all types of formal and informal training providers, educators and workplace learning providers.

The 2025 SDGs Teach-In will run from 1st March to 31st March 2025.

******************************************

Best wishes,

Lorraine

Dear Robert, Sarah, Fiona, Caroline,

Hope my email finds you all well.

I’m Ali, I work at the Centre for Sustainable Development, and supporting our Ops Manager (Fiona in Cc) with this request.

SOS UK, our partner org, is running a campaign asking educators to Pledge to teach about the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) from 1 to 31 March 2025.

This presents us with a great opportunity to encourage all educators (in all capacities) to engage further with the SDGs by including one or more SDG it in their teaching, learning and assessment practice during this period.

I wonder if its possible to circulate this opportunity to your respective faculty members, and if it can be displayed on your faculty screens from next week (24/Feb) and throughout the month of March. That would be great for increased visibility and engagement.

Please see the design attached and short blurb below explaining briefly what the Teach-In entails. Please feel free to update or change the text as required.
