A live discussion based on our podcast episode on sustainability. Dr Alastair Smith, Senior Teaching Fellow in Global Sustainable Development, will be joined by one of our current students to talk about the origins of the sustainability discourse, tracing its surprising history through to our current understanding of sustainable development.

You’ll be encouraged to join the conversation by asking questions such as:

• Is sustainability a new idea?
• What do we mean by education for sustainable development?
• How can we create a more sustainable world for all?

To get the most out of this session, we strongly encourage you to listen to the podcast episode beforehand.

This session is part of our programme of events for the University's virtual Open Weeks.
