Following a very successful session at ADEE’s annual meeting in Berlin (2019) the Special Interest Group for Sustainability Curricula in Dentistry has now published its initial findings:
- Embedding environmental sustainability within the modern dental curriculum –Exploring current practice and developing a shared understanding
- and an accompanying Infographic link
The next steps involve developing a series of learning outcomes that can be embedded within the GED curriculum. We are delighted to invite curriculum leads to attend this workshop to begin the process.
After sign up, we will allocate individuals into one of the 4 GED domains, and ask for submission of 2-3 learning outcomes that explicitly relate to sustainability in Dentistry. These will then be discussed at the workshop by 4 facilitated groups.
Thereafter, the finalised learning outcomes will be entered into a Delphi style consultation process with wide stakeholder representation across Europe. The aim is to publish the learning outcomes along with guidance for how these could be implemented and assessed – as a consensus paper.
We would be delighted to have you on board and we look forward to seeing you on the 14th June.
