DESCRIPTION:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is a growing awareness among sustainability scholars that focusing on global challenges or sustainable innovations is insufficient to prompt lasting engagement and new behaviors. Research indicates that to impact behaviors the individual and collective mindsets have to shift, which leads to the question: How to transform a mindset? This is the question contributing the panelists will be addressing. Contributing panelists have found ways to create transformative experiences impacting how students see themselves and act in the world.
