Future generations

"Indigenous teachings speak of a 'seventh generation principle'. This emphasizes that decisions made today should consider the impacts that will be seen seven generations from now. Our individual and collective decision-making must consider the generations to come if we are to realize a truly sustainable future."

Seneca Sustainability Plan, 2021-2026

Equity, health, and well-being

Living sustainably positively impacts the quality of our physical and social environment. When we design learning experiences that promote equity, health, and well-being all our students, we are promoting sustainability in the classroom.

Environmental health

A healthy ecosystem is vital for human survival. Finding ways to bring the natural world into the classroom — and bring students out into the natural world — can help students reflect on their relationship with the land and build empathy for other living beings.

Thriving, diverse, resilient communities

Small actions in local communities create enormous impacts on others. We can acknowledge this in our classrooms by connecting course topics to the multitude of communities to which we belong.

Interconnectedness

We are connected to each other and all living things. As the Anishinaabe Medicine Wheel teaches us, understanding interconnectedness promotes development of the whole self and helps students practice critical thinking, communication and collaboration skills in the classroom.
