Introduction

The  SDG Teach In is an annual campaign which calls upon educators worldwide to embed the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and beyond into their teaching, learning, and assessment.

Join us as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the SDG Teach In from 1st to 31st March 2027.

Pledge to take part in the SDG Teach In 2027

Sign up to take part and follow us on LinkedIn to keep posted on future Teach Ins.

We know from a decade of research that most students would like to see sustainable development actively incorporated throughout their education.

The SDGs are not an exhaustive list, so we strongly welcome educators to supplement the SDGs by embedding other worldviews, frameworks, and topics overlooked by the SDGs. The Teach In is therefore an ideal springboard for those getting started with or seeking to go further with embedding sustainability into education.

Watch the recording of the SDG Teach In 2026 introduction webinar. This outlines the aims, impact and examples of how previous institutions took part, support available and guidance for getting involved as an educator and learner.

Who can pledge to take part in the Teach In?

The #SDGTeachIn is open to all educators, trainers, and workplace learning facilitators in either early year, primary, secondary, tertiary, further, higher, adult, and community education, student unions/associations/guilds and beyond! 

What are the aims of the SDG Teach In?

Empower: Ensure students and staff are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and attributes to be the change they want to see in the world.

Critically engage: Showcase case studies and good practice of educator’s engagement with the SDGs and/or beyond including social-environmental justice and other frameworks related to sustainability.

Catalyse curriculum transformation: by encouraging and supporting educators to innovate methods in Education for Sustainable Development.

How is the campaign structured?

Each week in March will focus on a key theme, starting with environmental sustainability, then social, and economic pillars of sustainability, and care, collaboration, and creativity in the final week. These themes are a guide, and educators are welcome to blur the boundaries between the pillars throughout the campaign.
