What does education and sustainability look like in an East African context? How can faculty and educators collaboratively and strategically strengthen education and incorporate knowledge about Africa and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into high school and university curricula, and extension education programming? Austin Council and Eric Bendfeldt share their perspectives on education and sustainability as participants and fellows of VT East Africa Summer Institute for Educators. In this session, Austin and Eric share reflections about their intercultural learning experience and conversations with Tanzanian and Kenyan colleagues and partners about education, leadership, sustainability, and agriculture.
