The Challenge to Learn for Sustainable Living

At present the world is experiencing a time of rapid and dramatic changes that challenge us to reconsider and change deep-seated perceptions, behaviours, social practices and structures. Recognising that much of our lifestyle is ecologically and socially unsustainable, we are now being challenged to broaden and deepen our understanding of sustainable living and social change by making sense of our ecological and economic crises, not only from cognitive and management perspectives but also from holistic, deep psychological and transpersonal perspectives.

The 'Learning for Sustainable Living' program offered on this educational website is designed to provide students and professionals working in population health, environmental and sustainability education, community development, social work, and organisational change with the important knowledge and skills needed to assist the community in:
  • enhancing emotional and psychosomatic literacy (reflection on self and behaviour)
  • enhancing their healthy embodiment and sense of connectedness
  • acknowledging the importance of consuming healthy foods and drinks
  • enhancing the ability to develop and maintain a coherent sense of self within an emotionally supportive family and wider community
  • dealing with life’s demands and challenges without having to resort to addictive compensatory practices such as ‘retail therapy’ and the use of alcohol, smoking, and illicit drugs
  • leading happy and sustainable lives on a small ecological footprint.
The program emhasises an interdisciplinary and holistic approach to learning and personal change and draws on the knowledge and skills of the course participants.
