In light of the global climate change and unsustainable practices on part of humankind, sustainability has necessarily become a hot topic of discussion. Current climatic changes are a phenomenon that goes beyond countries and continents; a process that has been caused by humankind and is undeniable and inevitable, unless action is taken and promises are kept.The UWC Short Course "Building a Sustainable Future" will touch on issues within economic, environmental and social sustainability – and their several intersections – to give young participants a chance to rethink sustainability in its complexity, with its challenges. These themes will be explored in a non-formal learning setting, including self-led projects, interactive workshops, debates, reflections, guest speakers, etc. Participants will be enabled to engage in discussions on sustainability critically and informed, to envision the world in terms of a sustainable future and to contribute to this vision.
