SDG 4 – Quality Education

The EDS@FEUP project is aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 4 – Quality Education, and more specifically with target 4.7, which calls for ensuring that all learners acquire the knowledge and skills needed to promote sustainable development. The primary aim of EDS@FEUP is to equip students with the competencies required to integrate sustainability principles into their current and future professional practices, grounded in a deep understanding of today’s and tomorrow’s environmental, social, and economic challenges.
In addition, the project seeks to act as a catalyst for embedding sustainable development into the institutional culture at FEUP, fostering a transformative and long-lasting impact.
The integration of ESD in FEUP will be accomplished through the following measures:
- Consolidated training of teachers in sustainability
- Training of researchers and technicians
- A structured, transversal and participated revision of curricular plans, either by the adaptation of existing CU or by the development of new CU
- Implementation of the CU in the classroom context and the realization of an iterative process of monitoring and evaluation
- Development of dedicated contents in the area of sustainability with generalized access
- Non-formal education initiatives
- Regular dissemination and communication actions
