The 3rd International Education with Sustainability Conference (EwS 2022) will be held at the Atlantic Technological University, Sligo, Ireland on the 15th, 16th and 17th of August 2022.
The event is organised by the Technological University Green Campus Programme, The Dept. of Environmental Science at Atlantic Technological Univeristy Sligo, Mid Sweden University and the Environmental Sciences Association of Ireland (ESAI).
EwS 2022 is the third in a series of international interdisciplinary conferences that focus on the challenges facing all aspects of education, teaching for a sustainable future.
The event builds on the previous programmes (held at ATU Sligo previously IT Sligo and Mid Sweden University), addressing not only the challenges but also the opportunities for educators with the growing realisation in all aspects of society that we must weave sustainability throughout the teaching curriculum.
EwS 2022 will once again draw together national and international educators in focused paper sessions with thought provoking keynote speakers and opportunities for academic staff and researchers to participate in training workshops.
This year our keynotes will be from Sweden and Belgium.
