There is now huge pressure on university and college staff and students to become more engaged with sustainability and sustainable development practice. Yet most staff development programmes and academic curricula still fail to deliver the competencies, knowledge, skills and attitudes needed if the goal of sustainability is to be achieved. As the key annual sustainability event for UK Further and Higher Education, this important conference will encourage and inspire to identify essential skills and knowledge and go on to equip them to embed skills for sustainability in their own staff and students. Keynote Speakers include: Bill Rammell MP, Minister of State, Lifelong Learning, Further and Higher Education; Ann Finlayson, Education Commissioner, Sustainable Development Commission; Steve Egan, Deputy Chief Executive, HEFCE; Linda Newman, President, University and College Union (UCU); Professor Daniella Tilbury, Professor of Sustainability, University of Gloucestershire See www.eauc.org.uk to download a full programme and book online.
