The Whole Institution Approach (WIA) aims to embed Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) holistically in educational institutions and places of learning. Under the guiding principle of "Live, what we teach", educational institutions should align themselves with sustainability criteria in as many areas as possible, such as the educational programme, management decisions, networking activities and transforming learning and work spaces.

The Project "International ESD Alliances" (contact: DVV International at Deutscher Volkshochschul-Verband) invites all colleagues in the field of Adult Learning and Education to join us for an Online “Peer to Peer Learning” Session! Over the past three years the project has brought together Adult Education institutions and network organisations from different countries to experiment on how to implement a “Whole Institution Approach” to further embed Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in ALE institutions.
