Climate change, climate crisis, sustainability – these terms are omnipresent in everyday (university) life. But what are these topics about? What makes development sustainable? The basic seminar of the “Education for Sustainable Development” certificate answers these questions. The result is a basis for a well-founded and structured approach to topics that students encounter in the sustainability discourse. For historical context, the course begins with the milestones of global engagement with climate change and sustainability. In addition to the presentation and discussion of basic concepts, theories and literature, topics such as climate impact adaptation, behavioral research and climate communication are also covered.
