ABSTRACT
Sustainability can be characterised as cross-disciplinary, dynamic, value-laden, and ultimately a challenging academic subject for higher education teachers and students alike. Teaching sustainability therefore requires teaching methods which engage, embrace the environment, and energise action towards transformation of our relationship with the world around us. This introductory chapter provides a frame of how to use applied drama and performance in relation to the sustainability competences that it seeks to develop – inspired by Europe’s Green Competences and UNESCO global frameworks. It provides a platform of ideas of how you can utilise this book in your own learning and development journey.
