Description
Learning for a Sustainable Future - Higher Education for Green Transition in Southeast Asia (GreenEdAsia) is an initiative that promotes environmental sustainability through higher education in Vietnam and Thailand. The project aims to strengthen universities to build a skilled workforce in circular bioeconomy and renewable energy, with a focus on developing an innovative curriculum that integrates sustainability principles into various academic disciplines. GreenEdAsia also works on creating institutional implementation plans to ensure sustainable outcomes, involving universities in their development. In addition, it provides training programmes for teachers, ensuring that institutions can continue to implement the new curriculum after the end of the project.
GreenEdAsia advances the Green Deal goals by promoting renewable energy and the circular bioeconomy, driving economic transformation, clean energy, and climate action. Engaging students, educators, industry leaders, and policymakers in real-world challenges enhances climate awareness and fosters proactive problem-solving for sustainability. Collaboration between Vietnam, Thailand, and Europe strengthens regional solutions and innovation. Student-industry partnerships equip future professionals with essential skills for a sustainable workforce.
