Objectives

We follow the idea that the ecological crisis was preceded by a cultural crisis. ESD is not a teaching subject, but should find interdisciplinary space in every subject. We want to show to what extent all 17 Sustainable Development Goals affect the reality of our lives. And we want to provide teachers with learning materials that make it easy to connect each subject and the corresponding content to the 17 goals. We are developing these materials in a pilot region and showing how the ars vivendi content can be transferred to other regions. The ars vivendi didactics are an ideal content to start further Erasmus+ school encounters with. We want to address the creative, emotional intelligence of our target group and connect it with practical, research-first scientific methods. We want to develop an internally differentiated, inclusively applicable and cross-cultural didactics. The aim is to make sustainability innovative, creative and practical to learn and teach and to show that sustainability has already been thought about and implemented in some existing traditions.
