From my experience in designing sustainability curricula, I recommend starting with frameworks such as UNESCO’s Education for Sustainable Development principles and research in the Journal of Environmental Education. Authors like David Orr, Arjen Wals, and Sterling articulate how curricula can integrate knowledge, values, and action to nurture environmental attitudes. Studies emphasize place?based learning, inquiry projects, and community engagement as key design elements. Research shows that affective engagement—reflection, fieldwork, and stewardship projects—translates into deeper environmental commitment when tied to meaningful experiences.
