We must accept and understand that, if we are to redress the world’s current challenges, education henceforth needs to be redefined, renewed, and repositioned. Leading schools around the world are embracing this challenge. Turkey must not lag behind. Education has been a preparation for the workplace. Education has been an immersion in specialized academic areas. Now, an education must be something different.

Nuzhath Khanam, ENACT Angela Singh Bedi, Project uP Mainstreaming Gender in Climate Change Action: A Nuanced Approach Varishtha Singh, ENACT Unmuktman Singh, Project uP Youth Procrastination and Climate Change Muskaan Aggarwal, ENACT Anagha V. Nair, ProjectuP Abstract The climate has been undergoing a rapid change for the worse, for the past several decades. India, particularly in the last few years, has seen deadly examples of floods, heatwaves, extreme rainfall, thunderstorms, lightning, forest fires, cyclones, etc., to name a few results of increasing global warming and the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, which are giving rise to climate change. While some actions are being taken to tackle the problem, it has been noticed that the majority of the human population has been finding reasons to avoid engaging in any work or activity related to climate change. So why is this the case, and why this habit of procrastinating can have deadlier consequences for the human population? This paper aims to analyse how the habit of procrastination in human beings can be related to climate change. The fact that people have been putting off acting on climate change has often been cited as the main reason for the situation of the climate today. Therefore, this paper aims to analyse human thinking behind procrastination and describe how the relationship between youth, procrastination and climate change might not always be intentional.

Fine, Co-Chair Professor Fatma Müge Göçek Professor Mary Kelley Professor Rudi Lindner Barbara Reeves-Ellington, University of Oxford © Nevila Pahumi 2016 For my family ii Acknowledgements This project has come to life thanks to the support of people on both sides of the Atlantic. It is now the time and my great pleasure to acknowledge each of them and their efforts here. My long-time advisor John Fine set me on this path. John’s recovery, ten years ago, was instrumental in directing my plans for doctoral study. My parents, like many well-intended first generation immigrants before and after them, wanted me to become a different kind of doctor. Indeed, I made a now-broken promise to my father that I would follow in my mother’s footsteps, and study medicine. But then, I was his daughter, and like him, I followed my own dream. When made, the choice was not easy. But I will always be grateful to John for the years of unmatched guidance and support. In graduate school, I had the great fortune to study with outstanding teacher-scholars. It is my committee members whom I thank first and foremost: Pamela Ballinger, John Fine, Rudi Lindner, Müge Göcek, Mary Kelley, and Barbara Reeves-Ellington.

  • The Entrepreneurial School (Tes) Awards 2017
    THE ENTREPRENEURIAL SCHOOL (TES) AWARDS 2017 #TESawards2017 An initiative of JA Europe supported by Siemens The Entrepreneurial School Awards is an annual national and European recognition of the outstanding primary and second- ary schools championing entrepreneurship education. The schools are nominated by national JA organisations in cooperation with their national education authorities and/or Ministries of Education. The best school in each country is named as “The Entrepreneurial School of the Year” and is recognized on a European level. Criteria: • Entrepreneurship education activities include most of the teachers and the students • The school has a vision and a plan for entrepreneurship education • There are specific resources allocated to entrepreneurship education • The school has actively supported teachers’ continuing professional development and training within entrepreneurship education • How the school includes the local community and business sector in their activities This criteria follow the objectives of Europe 2020, the EU’s growth strategy which aims to enhance creativity and innovation, including entrepreneurship, at all levels of education and training. More particularly, the Awards respond to the new priorities for European cooperation in education and training presented by Commissioners Thyssen and Navracsics on 1 September 2015. JA Europe launched The Entrepreneurial School Awards in 2015 as part of The Entrepreneurial School (TES) project - an EU project which over the last 4 years has also produced Europe’s first Virtual Guide to Entrepreneurial Learning targeting teachers. While the EU project has ended, JA Europe continues to provide training and assistance to entrepreneurial teachers across Europe. www.theentrepreneurialschool.eu For the third edition of The Entrepreneurial School Awards, 15 entrepreneurial schools across Europe have been selected at national level for their entrepreneurial vision and outstanding implementation of entrepreneurship education programmes.
