The SDG Teach In is a campaign to put the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and therefore sustainability, at the heart of all stages of education, and across all disciplines. This annual campaign calls upon educators to include the SDGs within their teaching, learning and assessment during the campaign (and beyond!).

The next SDG Teach In will be from March 1st to March 31st 2025. Pledge from now until the end of 31 March 2025 to get involved. Complete this form to pledge.

The launch webinar introducing the Teach In will take place on 5 February 2025 11:30 to 12:30 UK time. Register for the webinar.

Each week in March 2025 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. You may also supplement the SDGs by bringing in other overlooked areas of sustainability into your teaching/learning.

The Teach In is open to all types of formal and informal training providers, educators and workplace learning providers. We believe in lifelong learning and that anyone in any context can be a student of the SDG Teach In. Sustainability is a diverse and ever-changing field, so help make a difference by pledging to the Teach In!

How to keep updated? The pledge form includes asking if you want to receive email updates about the Teach In. You can also keep updated by following SOS-UK on LinkedIn, Instagram, and X/Twitter and subscribing to our newsletter.

The Teach In aims to:

• Raise awareness of the importance of sustainable development
• Catalyse curriculum reform and test new ideas
• Embed sustainability across all training and learning
• Link training, teaching, learning, and assessment to local and global concerns
• Prepare everyone with the knowledge, skills, and attributes to tackle the world's greatest challenges

The 2024 SDG Teach In - Get started, Go Further campaign ran from March 1st - March 31st 2024 and was an incredibly successful Teach In! In its seventh year, we worked on reaching more students and educators to help them #getstarted on sustainability, or #gofurther with embedding the SDGs into training, teaching, learning and daily practice. Read our 2024 Campaign Report.

In March 2024, over 1059 educators pledged to include the SDGs into their education, across 19 countries globally, reaching over 105,412 students across 85 institutions, making a massive impact! ‍
