Last 12 December took place the activity “Against sustainability: a conversation with Andreu Escrivà” intended for the students on the specialty of Economics of the Master's Degree in Secondary Education Teaching.
With a provocative and suggestive title, the activity aimed to incite reflexion around the concept of “sustainability” and the ecological boundaries of the economic system from a critical perspective. The seminar was taught by the environmentalist Andreu Escrivà and, right after, a heated debate took place in which the students posed their questions and shared their opinions on how to rethink the economical system and how to translate this question to the Secondary Education classrooms.
