General Issue March 2024: Educating for Planetary Crisis
From the Editor:
Since our last issue, the crisis in higher education has deepened, from general relevancy in a post-Covid era of soaring expenses and political bombast, to the bankruptcy of institution after institution after the global systems shocks of the last several years. This issue’s articles highlight several ways forward: honoring indigenous ways of knowing, incorporating a sustainability lens across all fields and sectors of society, rigorously questioning our mental models, and strongly interweaving formal education with community expertise and needs.
