Spread The Word: The SDG Teach In Is Back! 

The time is ripe for demanding the integration of sustainability and environmental justice into our education systems amid various social and ecological challenges around the world.

What is the SDG Teach In?

The SDG Teach In is an annual campaign run by Students Organising for Sustainability UK (SOS-UK) which calls upon educators to embed the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into their teaching, learning or assessment.

This year, the campaign lasts from 1st to 31st March 2025.

The #SDGTeachIn2025 is open to all educators, trainers, lifelong and workplace learning facilitators, in all forms of formal or informal education provider around the world.

What has been achieved so far?

Since 2018, the SDG Teach In has reached nearly 500,000 students across 50 countries, with over 1000 educators pledging in 2024. Help promote the Teach In to boost these numbers!

SOS-UK are hiring! Paid positions as an Economics PRB Coordinator

SOS-UK have an exciting opportunity to work with us alongside the New Economics Foundation to support the creation of a new professional regulatory body for economists to redesign outdated structures and approaches that run counter to sustainable climate-safe and ethical economics.

With two roles available, we are looking for economics students (or recent graduates) who are passionate about advocating for change and curriculum reform, have an awareness of how sustainability and interrelated justice issues are linked to economics, and with a strong interest in non-mainstream and pluralistic economics.

Following the St George’s House consultation in February 2024, SOS-UK is hoping to lead the way in supporting Professional, Statutory and Regulatory Bodies (PSRBs) to better integrate sustainability into their work. The event produced a report including several key action points at three levels: internal PSRB organisational change for sustainability, enabling student leadership and empowerment in this area, and advocating for system change in the systems and structures that govern and influence the education and political sectors.

These roles will build upon the progress achieved so far on these recommendations with a specific focus on progression for Economics, addressing the need for better regulation of economics courses in higher education to drive meaningful curriculum reform.

This is the opportunity to be involved with truly transformative and impactful work, elevating student voices in informing, shaping and influencing the work.

This is a truly exciting role with the opportunity to be involved with transformative and impactful work in the sector. You will have the chance to use your own experiences and insight from economics academia to platform student voices in informing, shaping, and influencing the development of this work. The work will be diverse and varied with plenty of development opportunities. Typical tasks might include, but are not limited to: writing blogs and newsletters, conducting research and scoping exercises, reaching out to organisational partners and interested stakeholders, networking with like-minded organisations, and speaking at key sector-body events and conferences.

Two roles are available for 7xhr/week and 12xhr/week for 6 months. Positions are home-based within the UK, and some travel to London is required. The deadline to apply is 11:55pm Sunday 16^th March!
