1.2 Curricular infusion

Addressing the climate emergency through teaching and learning can be achieved either in dedicated standalone sessions or by ‘infusing’ climate crisis-related topics into existing curriculum and assessment. You’ll focus on the latter in this part of the course.

While some disciplines, such as science or geography, tend to have national curricula which include some aspects of climate-related learning, these are not the only disciplines where the climate emergency is a key consideration. There are other disciplines where this is the case. One example is health and healthcare.
