How do we bring ecosocial education into schools and their environments?
Ways into Ecosocial Education answers this question with many stories and strategies, in a 75-page handbook for DIY print.
Written on the basis of a multi- year co-research process across different parts of Europe as well as South Africa, this book insists on ecosocial education as a pluriversal and co-creative practice. Not one single answer, but many: all of them pointing at horizons of justice, care and learning. The many practitioners involved in making this book, as part of the ecosocial education strand of Common Ecologies, keep the ecological and the social connected: because we are teachers, teacher trainers, parents, activists, students and institutional actors, we wanted this book to speak to all those complex roles and positions.
The first part of this book talks about the roles we play in education, from the classroom to the neighbourhood and beyond. In a second part, we learn how and why ecosocial education isn’t the same thing everywhere, exploring different geographies of ecological justice and learning across the Eastern Mediterranean, the Spanish state, British and Irish Isles, German-speaking countries and South Africa. In the final section, you can find work- sheets for use in both school and community, accompanied by resources.
We wrote this for all to play with, expand, test and discuss: whoever and wherever you are, make it yours! Have a look:
