Home Economic Systems That Are Durable

Abstract

The inclusion of home economics (HE) teachers in sustainable development (SD) instruction for preteens and teenagers can significantly enhance its effectiveness. Sustainable practices can be included into the management of daily household affairs, highlighting the importance of sustainable well-being at both an individual and global scale. The extent to which teachers can proficiently fulfil this responsibility is still a subject of debate. The aim of this research was to comprehend the coping mechanisms, teaching styles, and future aspirations of Finnish higher education teachers in regards to teaching sustainable development. To determine the factors that contributed to the success or failure of this initiative, additional research was conducted. The findings indicate that although professors in higher education have expressed a preference for sustainability, they frequently encounter difficulties in integrating it into their instructional practices due to insufficient financing and other resources. Irrespective of whether these teachers have shown a preference for environmentally responsible methods, this fact stays unchanged. Today's discussion will centre around the methods of incorporating sustainable development principles into higher education and promoting cross-curricular activities.
