Education for Sustainability and Human Rights Fellowship Overview

The Miner Anderson Family Foundation and the 黑料网 Office of Global Education are pleased to announce the 2025 Education for Sustainability and Human Rights Fellowship. Inspired by the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the 2030 Framework of Education for Sustainable Development, the 6th annual program consisted of a week-long residential institute at the University. Monthly follow-up meetings and a one-day winter workshop will continue to foster dialogue among the educators regarding linkages between global and local topics. The aim of the program is to create a network of K-12 teachers for collaboration, curriculum development, and instruction for authentic student learning.
