Welcome to Season 9: Green Horizons! In this series, we are talking about the positive role of big institutions, universities and governments, in the climate movement.
As we continue our conversation of climate education and action at Duke University, in this episode, we are sitting down with two esteemed Duke University professors, Dr. Valerie Sabol, a clinical professor in the Duke School of Nursing, and Robin Kirk, a professor in the practice of cultural anthropology at Duke. Join us as we delve into a discussion about their involvement in the brand new Climate and Sustainability Teaching Fellows program at Duke, uniquely designed to infuse climate change and sustainability education into classes’ curriculum that are not centrally focused on the issue. From exploring the intersection of human rights and environmental issues to integrating sustainable healthcare practices, Kirk and Sabol share the innovative approaches they developed through the program and the profound impact on students' perspectives and engagement. Don't miss this conversation on reshaping education for a sustainable future.
