Our Values
Building on a long history in teacher education and research, the Faculty of Education is guided by Flourishing as a Faculty, a foundational document that defines our core values of equity, diversity, inclusion, reconciliation, and empowerment—values that promote sustainability and human dignity within the Faculty and beyond. Extending this vision, the Faculty has developed the Environmental Flourishing and Climate Action Plan: In the Faculty and Beyond, a comprehensive strategy embedding environmental responsibility into every facet of academic and community work. Designed to guide our responses to climate change and related global crises, the Plan reinforces our commitment to fostering sustainability and flourishing through teaching, research, policy, and community engagement.
