The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals urge global action for a sustainable future for all. These goals are interdisciplinary and require collaboration within and across countries. They offer a framework for tangible progress and relevant context for developing global competence in our interconnected and interdependent world. Join us in this overview of openly licensed global competence modules from the World Affairs Council – Seattle. Lessons focused on the Sustainable Development Goals target local and global issues ranging from ensuring quality education for all to mitigating climate change. Available in multiple languages, these resources support students in developing the knowledge, skills, and dispositions that will prepare them for college, career, and civic life. Resources are located on the Washington OER Hub - Washington's platform for sharing K-12 OER and providing equitable access to standards-aligned, high-quality instructional materials.
