Abstract

This paper discusses about (a) the urgent global problem of unsustainable development of the Earth’s natural systems, and (b) a promising way forward in the form of a transformative educational perspective that integrates STEM education and Arts education. I illustrated how this transformative STEAM curricular and pedagogical perspective is currently being implemented by educators in universities and schools across Indonesia, Nepal, Hong Kong, Southern Africa, Philippines and Australia. A detailed account can be found in two recently published books that provide insightful accounts of both the theory and practice of transformative learning and STEAM education for sustainable development This paper provides a synopsis of the main ideas.
