In this course, students will explore the key concept of biodiversity, with a particular focus on marine ecosystems. They will investigate different marine taxonomic groups and how these organisms have adapted to life in the ocean. Students will examine current threats to marine environments, such as overfishing and invasive species, and evaluate both local and global conservation strategies and management responses.
The second part of the course focuses on Education for Sustainability. Students will explore real-world environmental challenges and investigate how individual and collective actions can contribute to a more sustainable future. As part of this, they will complete an 8-week personal sustainability project, where they identify an aspect of their own lifestyle to change and reflect on how it can positively impact both the environment and their community.
This course is ideal for students who care about the natural world and want to make a meaningful difference.
