Introduction
This unit involves both critical reflection on the UN Sustainable Development Goals and critical reflection on lives lived in the context of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Students will learn and apply Theory of Change techniques to identify, plan, implement and evaluate the impact of actions for positive change. This capstone unit will give students the opportunity to bring together their learnings and apply their sustainability knowledge and literacy to aspects of their own lives, and identify how it can contribute to sustainable outcomes within their wider community and globally.
