We believe that when students lead on sustainability, they learn about it, picking up the vital knowledge, skills and competencies they will need to help transform society into a more just and sustainable place.

Our vision is to see: more students leading on, and learning for, sustainability; an education system repurposed around the climate emergency and ecological crisis; and sustainability that is more inclusive, so it is for everyone. reform work; our work progressing diversity and inclusion across the environmental sector.
