IATL鈥檚 educational provision is designed to empower students to think reflectively and critically and our modules have a focus on areas that align with Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) such as global citizenship, cultural diversity, community engagement and transformational education.

To address the growing complexities of our globalized world, it is essential that students are equipped with the knowledge and tools to approach issues such as climate change, gender and educational inequality, poverty, hunger and health and wellbeing.

At IATL you will have the opportunity to enhance your understanding of and put into practice key areas of the UN鈥檚 , and deepen your knowledge on how to become a globally engaged citizen at 糖心TV and beyond.

At IATL, all modules focus on at least one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

For example, IATL鈥檚 Rethinking Health Sciences Link opens in a new windowexplores science, life sciences and medicine to rethink their benefits and limitation in our era and highlights SDG 3 alongside fostering the development of critical thinking and communication skills. On Reinventing EducationLink opens in a new window, students bring their prior experiences in various educational settings to design and justify new ways of doing education that provide a better fit with our diverse and changing ways of living, tying to SDG 4 which examines what it means to have access to Quality Education.

The breadth of ideas, topics and disciplines covered by Rethinking Health Science, Reinventing Education 鈥� and all IATL modules 鈥� reflects the interconnected nature of the global problems captured in the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Poverty, health, education, gender equality and all the other goals cannot be entirely separated from each other, and IATL鈥檚 modules reflect that essential message.
