The EAUC has just announced that it will be launching its new sustainability assessment system – Learning in Future Environments (LiFE) – in November.

ESD Consulting has been working with the EAUC to develop the metrics for LiFE, which replaces Universities that Count (UtC). The new system is less about rankings and more about enabling universities and colleges to accurately assess where they are, as well as making practical suggestions for what they can chance in order to improve.

For more about LiFE visit the dedicated website.

During September 2011 Jimmy will be in Australia for a speaking tour.

ESD has worked with ACTS – Australian Campuses Towards Sustainability – for more than a year and Jimmy was invited to speak to colleges across the country about the meaning of sustainability in a learning context.

Jimmy will facilitate a series of workshops exploring the topic using a range of international examples and case studies. For more information visit the ACTS website
