In this network, researchers (postdoc-level) at Ghent University (BE), University of Leuven (BE), Södertörn University (SE), University of Gda?sk (PO), Uppsala University (SE), Aarhus University (DK), Örebro University (SE) and Rhodes University (SA) share a scientific research interest in the relation between education and societal transformation. They want to deepen and widen our understanding of the public role of education in the face of sustainability challenges, nourish and facilitate further theoretical and empirical research and foster much-needed interdisciplinary collaboration of political theorists, educational theorists and sustainability education researchers.
