Three ways education projects are building sustainability literacy
Education is a growing category on Keys for Tomorrow, with 279 tracked projects. Looking across the catalog, three distinct approaches keep recurring.
Sustainability skills have to be taught somewhere, and it isn’t only universities doing the teaching. Looking at real organizations instead of category labels, three approaches keep showing up.
1 Teach sustainability inside formal institutions
The first pattern runs through universities and accredited schools — institutions embedding sustainability directly into curricula and campus life for the next generation of graduates.
Tallinn University of Technology
Estonia's only technological university, with nearly 10,000 students from over 100 countries preparing to tackle global sustainability challenges.
Akilah Project
Evolving into an accredited university focused on liberal arts and contemplative leadership, empowering women through a new campus.
Solomon Learning
Hong Kong-based social enterprise connecting education to real-world impact across Asia through global learning partnerships.
2 Reach learners outside the classroom
A second group skips formal institutions altogether, using video, youth programs, and community training to make sustainability literacy accessible to anyone.
EcoRise
Empowers youth through hands-on sustainability education programs worldwide, supporting teachers and schools to build environmental literacy.
En Vert Et Contre Tout
Video platform making ecological awareness fun and accessible through DIY cooking, cosmetics, and eco-friendly tips.
InVento Innovation Lab
Training programs and consulting on regenerative practices, addressing climate change and gender-based challenges through education.
3 Build professional skills for the transition
The remaining projects target working professionals directly — leadership courses and resource platforms built for people who need to apply sustainability skills on the job.
