Lecture Series: Is Public Education the hidden solution to social, economic, and environmental ills?

September 12 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Bluewater Association for Lifelong Learning Presents: Education in our Rapidly Changing World

Annie Kidder: 

Canada is at an inflection point and our economic, social, and environmental futures depend on the next steps we take. But, instead of looking to the long game and designing integrated strategies that might provide real and lasting hope for the future, we remain stuck in short-term, compartmentalized, and one-off responses to the headline crises.

Long-term, sustainable solutions require upstream actions. It may sound too simple to believe, but there are potential solutions to our social, economic, and sustainability issues in our boring old public education system.  In this interactive lecture, Annie Kidder will describe how public education could and should change to meet the challenges of the 21st century and ensure a better future for our next generations.
