This education brief from 2023 highlights our team's lines of work in education
Our Education Director recently reflected on sustainability and education at the Paris Columbia Global Center, where she was invited to be a Fellow at the Institute for Ideas and Imagination in 2024.
CSD's Jeffrey D. Sachs and Jesse Thorson co-edited a new book titled Ethics in Action for Sustainable Development, based off a two-year initiative seeking a multi-religious consensus on the ethics of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. The volume includes a foreword by Pope Francis and Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, and will be published by Columbia University Press on December 20, 2022. It is available for pre-order now.
