Decolonising and Decarbonising the Economics Curriculum: An Exploration of Synergies
摘要
Current and future generations are facing multiple challenges in the form of climate change, ecological deterioration, and social inequalities. These interconnected issues are associated with costs which are only expected to increase over time. This has implications for higher education which needs to equip graduates with decarbonisation and decolonisation frameworks to tackle the complexities of the twenty-first century. This chapter pays attention to the way the economics curriculum can empower practitioners and learners to become changemakers capable of designing solutions for environmental and injustice crises.
