dc.description.abstract | Higher education has provided little leadership and few conceptual tools to assist us to better understand our place, among others, in leading the world towards a more sustainable future. We continue to educate society in ways oblivious to the mounting crisis of unsustainability (Orr 1992). Instead, our universities reinforce human exceptionalism in environmental matters with a diet of managerialism, funding demands, competitive ratings predicated on institutional instrumentalism, and path-dependent curricula based on a ‘knowing about’ pedagogy rather than one that enhances capability in ‘being-for’. This approach has proven spectacularly disastrous in dealing with critical concerns of the planet. This chapter suggests an alternative curriculum to transform our institutions of higher education | - |
