Inspiring event of the day!

Today we will talk about SUSTA Erasmus + project and another great initiative that was done during the project!

Building upon the outcomes of IO1, our second output centered on the meticulous design of a syllabus for a teaching course with a sustainability focus!

This syllabus consists of lectures (20 hours) and e-learning (10 hours), the course aims to equip students with comprehensive knowledge of sustainable development, consumption, and business strategies.

Learning outcomes encompass recognizing and analyzing sustainable development goals, evaluating economic benefits, understanding innovation's role, implementing green actions, and applying regulatory frameworks.

The syllabus covers diverse topics, including climate change, sustainable consumption patterns, green supply chains, and disclosures in sustainable business practices. Student responsibilities include active participation, case study analysis, and continuous assessment through exams and practical work.

The course utilizes a variety of instructional formats, such as lectures, seminars, workshops, e-learning, independent assignments, and mentor collaboration.

Evaluation involves continuous monitoring, tests, case studies, workshops, independent assignments, seminar papers, and a concluding anonymous survey.

The required literature includes an e-book on sustainability for students and various publications from the Poznań University of Economics and Business Press, supplemented by optional readings on global sustainability standards and frameworks.

Sustainable Daily Action:
So, assuming you bought the gifts for your loved ones, and now its to wrap them, do not forget to use eco-friendly gift wrap or reusable options. 🎁

Sustainable action of 2023:
In 2023, a global surge in sustainability legislation is anticipated, with governments worldwide focusing on circularity and ESG-related rules.

Europe, a sustainability leader, approved the Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), making sustainability reporting mandatory for 50,000 businesses by 2026. European corporations plan to use 2023 as a test year for CSRD and ESRS requirements. Beyond Europe, Australia, Hong Kong, India, and the United States are intensifying their commitment to sustainability.

Initiatives include cracking down on greenwashing, mandating ESG reporting, developing green bonds, and increasing climate accountability. Despite delays, the SEC plans to rule on climate disclosure in April, aligning with the newly approved Inflation Reduction Act's $374 billion in climate spending.

The global "forcing function" is driving companies worldwide to adhere to evolving sustainability standards.

Legislation is a very important way to promote sustainability in many sections!
