SUMMARY:Enacting Education for Sustainable Development 2: spotlight on teaching practices for exploring ‘Worldviews\, Perceptions and Values’.
DESCRIPTION:Supported by CHARM-EU\, this webinar series shares the background of Trinity College Dublin’s Enacting Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) staff development module in the context of the CHARM-ED partnership between TCD\, ELTE and UB. Webinar 2 focuses on the Students-as-Partners (SaP) approach taken to workshop case studies and activities for the Enacting ESD module\, involving the PhD students as speakers who participated in its co-development and roll-out.\nTCD\, UB and ELTE’s CHARM-ED project Enacting ESD will enable staff to experience\, and then integrate the student-centred\, action-oriented and transformative approaches into their teaching envisaged in UNESCO’s preferred pedagogical approaches. The project will adapt resources previously used for professional development in TCD to create a micro-credential format shareable across the CHARM-EU Alliance. \nSpotlighting the experiential workshop in the theme ‘exploring worldviews\, perceptions and values’\, (supported by video’s and teaching guides available as Open Education Resources at TCD)\, this second webinar will outline the students-as-Partners (SaP) approach taken to development of workshop case studies and related activities for the module in TCD. The session involves as speakers the PhD students that co-developed and piloted the workshops to teaching staff (Maryam Yabo)\, and that rolled out workshops to undergraduate students in Trinity Business school (David Coffey). The webinar will offer facilitated discussion and an open Q&A session. \nThis event is open to all CHARM-EU members and anyone beyond who is curious to learn. No registration required. \n  Date: Monday\, 19 January\n  Time: 10:00-11:00 UTC / 11:00-12:00 CET\n Format: Online panel discussion (live stream + recording available afterwards)\n Join here: Teams\n Privacy notice: Please find the privacy notice here. \n‘Exploring worldviews\, perceptions and values’ is one of five related blocks collaboratively developed by an interdisciplinary staff-student team in TCD (2023-2024). Videos are grounded in the Sustainable Development Goals\, Rockstrom and Colleagues’ planetary boundaries and Kate Raworth’s Doughnut Economics shortfall dimensions providing core insights from experts. Mining in the Congo provides real-world case studies\, developed by student interns\, helping learners to question their worldviews\, perceptions and values related to sustainability dilemmas from community\, policy maker and corporate perspectives. Workshop activities incorporate cycles of role play and peer debate that induce learners to accommodate alternate perspectives presented by their peers using established techniques for moral reasoning competencies development. Reflection on Raworth’s social equity and gender equality dimensions are prioritised. Having experienced the workshop process as a learner\, facilitated exploration of the theoretical underpinnings\, or pedagogical approach\, used in workshop design supports Teaching Practice development for those enacting Education for Sustainable Development. \nIf you missed the first webinar event\, you can access the presentation here. The video recording of webinar 1 is available here. \nStand by for the upcoming Webinar 3 of Enacting ESD on 16 February 2026! \nSpeakers\nMaryam Yabo\nMaryam Yabo is a PhD researcher in law at Trinity College Dublin\, where her research examines international climate law with a focus on how climate responses and energy transitions are structured through legal and political frameworks. \nShe was selected to join TCD’s Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) team as a student intern\, where she co-led on the design and beta-testing of experiential\, case-based workshops on climate justice\, resource extraction\, and global inequality\, including case studies on cobalt mining in the DRC and climate migration. \nLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/maryamyab0 \nDavid Coffey\nDavid Coffey is a PhD student at Trinity Business School. His PhD focusses on the process of social value creation in social enterprises\, with a particular focus on social value processes in situations of geographic extremity and social exclusion. Post-PhD\, he hopes to continue his research efforts\, focusing on socio-environmental value creation. \nDavid joined the ESD staff development Module pilot in May-July 2024. Following from that\, he worked as a Workshop Leader for the first year of its implementation as an undergraduate module\, remaining on for a second year in 2025. Throughout\, he worked alongside other Workshop Leaders to adapt the curriculum for incoming first year undergraduate students. \nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/1david1coffey1/ \nDr. Cicely Roche\nCicely Roche was seconded to the TCD Education for Sustainable Development project\, as a Fellow in ESD\, in May 2023. Cicely’s key interests are in the development of ethical/moral reasoning competencies\, use of curriculum design to drive competencies development and Programme-Focused approaches to assessment. \nCicely is module co-ordinator for TCD’s collaboratively developed (staff and students 2023-2024) ‘Enacting Education for Sustainable Development’. Module design is grounded in UNESCO (2017) preferred pedagogical approaches and competencies\, and in experiential learning opportunities to empower staff to introduce ESD to curriculum in TCD. Piloted in May-July 2024\, a second iteration was completed in Dec 2024. \nContact: rocheci@tcd.ie \nAcknowledgements\nThe Trinity College Dublin\, Eötvös Loránd University and the University of Barcelona partnership is supported by CHARM-ED (2025-2026) funding to support the development\, enhancement\, or redesign of higher education and lifelong learning activities across the CHARM-EU Alliance. \nModule content and activities were developed collaboratively by six ESD Fellows (Carlos Rocha\, Cicely Roche\, Sarah-Jane Cullinane\, John Gallagher\, Clare Kelly\, and Felix Mezzanotte) and four student interns\, (Maryam Yabo\, William Reynolds\, Freddie Fallon and Tom Hegarty)\, as part of TCD’s ‘Enacting Education for Sustainable Development in Trinity’ programme in 2023-2024. A wide range of students and staff actively engaged with and impacted positively on piloting and continuous improvement of workshops during late 2023-2024. Content was edited to OER format by Mr Kevin O Connor at the Centre for Academic Practice in TCD (2025). \nThe work on the Enacting ESD module was funded by the National Forum/Higher Education Authority (Ireland) under the Strategic Alignment of Teaching and Learning Enhancement Fund.
