First digital hub of SDG resources for schools and educators was launched on October 5, 2018 at the IB Global Conference in Vienna, Austria.
Centralizing curricula, lesson plans, videos, and educational activities, the Global Schools website provides schools and educators with resources they need to get started with teaching the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and implementing them within their schools.
Here are some main highlights:
- SDG Pledge for schools: The pledge represents a commitment by schools to recognize, support and promote the SDGs in their curriculum and campus environment. It also ensures that schools will involve teachers and students to acquire and deliver the knowledge and skills needed to solve global problems and achieve the SDGs. Link available here.
Lesson plans for teachers: Developed by leading education experts, the lesson plans offer structured and comprehensive guidelines and activities to help schools and teachers educate students about the SDGs. Available from grades 1-12. Link available here.
- Library of fun resources for students: From games and quizzes to TED videos and comics, the library of fun resources offers alternative ways to engage and entertain students while learning on global issues. Link available here.
