Finland - A World Leader In Education

EduGems Finland was founded in early 2019 with a mission to help students and teachers find their passion and motivation to make the world more sustainable.

Education for Sustainable Development is still mostly unknown and unused in schools around the world, yet it is a SDG 4.7 and its implementation is urgent! The World lacks holistic science lessons aligning with sustainability and pedagogy typical in Finland - trusting the capabilities of learners.

Finland has successfully incorporated holistic ESD to its curriculum, and is currently taking the lead in making this transformation possible worldwide, and EduGems is leading the way!

PEDAGOGY

Superpowers through ESD and positive pedagogy!

In Moldova, Science, Chemistry and Biology subjects teachers were invited to cooperate. They showed in their schools education that really matters for the future.

Parents were impressed by the motivation of their kids searching and exploring information about the materials, how they are used and what the reason is for the raw materials."

FEEDBACK

What our students are saying?

Alpa Toprani - Teacher

”The education of sustainable goals is enlightening as well as an eye opener of the importance of the greater power of nature. Children will need to appreciate and learn to preserve it to empower their learning journey.”

Leena Aho - Teacher

”There are things we take for granted but education should not be one of them nor should the thinking "once a teacher, always a teacher" mold our thinking. Cultures vary so much and so does education in different parts of the world that we need to understand that we actually are members of a global village with the same needs of good education that reaches its goals. I think this training is a very good tool towards that.”
