Higher education plays a pivotal role in embedding the values, practices and ethos of sustainability and sustainable development in both students and staff. As they leave university and progress through life, graduates from the university will be responsible for developing new ways to manage and navigate global challenges, such as climate change, inequality, poverty, and ultimately to change the world for the better. It is our responsibility as educators to ensure that graduates have the tools to be able to do so.
The University of Liverpool has therefore prioritised sustainability within its new strategic framework, Strategy 2031. Liverpool is committed to ensuring that the university has a positive local and global impact in this area through both teaching and research activity, and that we address global challenges facing today’s society head-on.
The Liverpool Learning and Teaching Conference 2025 will therefore be themed on ‘Learning and Teaching for a Sustainable Future’, inviting submissions that cover topics that are related to the following areas:
- Embedding sustainability in the curriculum
- Exploring university initiatives on sustainability
- Enhancing sustainability via Technology-Enhanced Learning
- Sustainable teaching practices
- Student-led sustainability initiatives
- The ethics and sustainability of Artificial Intelligence
