Lord Mayor’s Coffee Colloquies: How Can We Educate for a Sustainable Future?
On Tuesday, 9th April the Lord Mayor’s Coffee Colloquy on Sustainable Development Goal:4 Quality Education will take place, with opening remarks given by Alderman Robert Howard. This colloquy is organised in partnership with the Royal Air Force Air Cadets, and will focus on ‘How can we Educate for a Sustainable Future’.
At this Colloquy, organised by the Air Cadets, ten speakers will challenge what we teach and how we teach it and use their own experience to provide inspiration for anyone involved in educating the next generation for a sustainable future. We will cover education inside and outside the classroom and how technology and philanthropy can make education accessible to all.
