Having a Future: Radical Pedagogies in Education for Sustainable Development

A panel of Ulster University and Queen University Belfast staff explore broad questions relating to the pressing issue of sustainability in art and design education.

In this, they will reflect on successes to date and ask questions of the needs of art and design curricula going forwards, examining both opportunities and challenges.

The session will conclude by exploring the ways in which art and design educators can best meet these challenges head on.
