This document discusses education for sustainable development (ESD) and its role in climate action. It notes that ESD relates to SDGs 4, 15, and 17 on quality education, life on land, and partnerships. The document outlines trends in ESD topics like indigenous education, climate change, sustainable gastronomy, and waste management. It also discusses barriers to ESD implementation like a lack of teacher training, low priority given to SDGs, and resistance to changing behaviors and values. The document proposes discussing priority areas for ESD on climate change, how those areas could change student behaviors, factors that help or hinder student engagement, and examples of public awareness programs that aim to shift behaviors and values related to issues like family

Nothing about them without them: Authentically engaging students in UDL growthFrederic Fovet
Presentation at the 1st International Universal Design for Learning Symposium Learning Together.
Maynooth University, June 8th, 2023
There has been a growing interest for Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as a framework for inclusion in both the K-12 and post-secondary sectors over the last decade, and this momentum has been noticeable globally. The body of literature which evidences the pedagogical benefits of UDL implementation for the inclusion of diverse learners is now broad and diversified. There is also growing interest in examining UDL implementation from a leadership and administrative perspective, examining it as a management of change process.
Throughout this growth in scholarship and field initiatives, the concepts of student voice and student advocacy have frequently been used and showcased. The literature regarding the learner role in the process of UDL implementation is, however, still limited. Placing learners in the driving seat when it comes to UDL adoption is therefore purely conceptual and abstract at this stage. It will be challenging to genuinely scale-up UDL as a framework, in both the K-12 sector and the post-secondary landscape, until students have considered with care and offered an active leadership role. Students’ perception of UDL and its objectives are key in the success of initiatives that seek to integrate it across organizations.
This fully interactive session will examine the various facets of the notion of learner involvement in the process of UDL adoption. First, the session will consider the way UDL must be explicitly discussed with learners within the class, while UDL initiatives are attempted. Failure to explain this process to students, and to actively engage them in it, significantly limits the scope of such efforts. The second part of the session will consider learner voice beyond the class itself, and will discuss ways to involve students as co-advocates for UDL growth, across institutions. This is a rich and complex process of critical empowerment which has unfortunately been so far rushed or ignored. The third part of the session will consider how UDL professional development should be addressed not just to educators but to student groups and student representatives. This section of the presentation will explore how the UDL principles must bee woven into such resources and PD for students and student groups, and how they must inform the design of such initiatives.

Can you afford not to do this? Framing the pressing need for Universal Design...Frederic Fovet
Slides of my presentation as part of a panel run with Anna Santucci hosted by UCC and organized by CIRTL and James Northridge of UCC Inclusive
While Universal Design for Learning (UDL) had gained in momentum across Canadian post-secondary institutions over the last decade, it has been mostly framed in terms of pedagogical best practices. This has inherently meant that it has attracted and been appealing to instructors already very focused on transformative pedagogies and accessibility. Few other strategic approaches to UDL advocacy and strategic growth have to date been explored. Yet, many efforts to deploy UDL in the further and higher education sectors have stalled or not gained full momentum on the global scale. The time has perhaps come to conceptualize the need for UDL from powerful new and innovative stances, for optimal impact and growth outcomes.
An argument which is less often used to frame UDL but that carries perhaps more persuasive weight with faculty, staff, and administration is that of sustainable development. When examining current post-secondary practices with regards to accessibility, learner diversity, and inclusion, it becomes immediately and pressingly tangible that campuses can rarely afford to continue functioning efficiently with their existing models.
There are three distinct ways, this session will argue, in which sustainability can and should be used as a lens to examine the need for change in relation to inclusion and accessibility: (i) first the notion of sustainable teaching practices pushes us to question how long we can continue to design for the mythical mainstream classroom, without burning out while retrofitting constantly for the diverse student population that is in fact in our lecture halls; (ii) the sustainable development lens also pushes to examine out current model of service provision in relation to accessibility and to question how long this delivery model can last without imploding; (iii) lastly, considering the hyper neo-liberal mindset that currently characterizes the neo-liberal sector, it is reasonable to wonder if institutions have a genuine likelihood of surviving and thriving if they do not respond to the ever more eloquent needs of a diverse clientele.
This session will seek to examine and showcase how UDL addresses these three areas of concern related to sustainable development. The session will be followed by a 30-minute panel during which these themes will continue to be explored in a fully interactive manner with the audience. The outcomes include:
- Acknowledge the impact of sustainability as a lens to promote UDL within campuses;
- Explore arguments and examples that may be useful to showcase UDL within a sustainability approach in the participants’ own institutions;
- Identify stakeholder relationship which must be developed and strengthened to grow UDL implementation within the sustainable development lens.

Background info to add to my curriculumn
In being a member of the Greek community, serving on the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), obtaining an MA in Higher Education, as well as interning one year under Southern Miss Greek-Life’s coordinator will undoubtedly strengthen my chances of becoming the best UTSA Greek-Life coordinator. As an online instructor for the international program, TutorABC, I have attained first-hand knowledge of working with students from different backgrounds. In working as an instructor for students with Intellectual Disabilities (IDs), I gained different techniques and life skills, a sense of what works with verbal and non-verbal students, and how to ensure their learning needs are ultimately met. I have learned more from international scholars and students with IDs than from any class or study I have acquired. I am currently enrolled in this course to fulfill my credit hours, however, I do plan to learn different life and educational skills I will be able to apply and teach as a Greek-Life coordinator. An educator teaching in higher education should always seek various ways to relate to all their students, learn to build quick rapport, as well as always strive to provide learners with a positive and engaging learning environment and be willing to distribute and receive constructive criticism related to the lessons. As an educator in the 21st-Century, I would like to learn additional techniques, educational games, and skills that relate to students on the collegiate level.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.
