The World Becomes What We Teach

Educating a Generation of Solutionaries

De: Zoe Weil

Narrado por: Diane Lehman

How can we create a just, healthy, and humane world? What is the path to developing sustainable energy, food, transportation, production, construction, and other systems? What's the best strategy to end poverty and ensure that everyone has equal rights? How can we slow the rate of extinction and restore ecosystems? How can we learn to resolve conflicts without violence and treat other people and nonhuman animals with respect and compassion? The answer to all these questions lies with one underlying system - schooling. To create a more sustainable, equitable, and peaceful world, we must reimagine education and prepare a generation to be solutionaries - young people with the knowledge, tools, and motivation to create a better future. This book describes how we can (and must) transform education and teaching; create such a generation; and build such a future.

Life Changing

I listened to this book because I was thinking about taking a Humane Education class. I enjoy it so much that I not only took the class, but also changed my own education trajectory.
