From 2010 to 2016, UF hosted the Prairie Project – an annual training workshop and mentor-ship program to support colleges and faculty to develop curriculum for sustainability.

• “Green the Curriculum” to introduce and reinforce the theme of environmental and social sustainability throughout students’ educational experiences
• Support and assist faculty in curricular innovation, and promote interaction that enables faculty to collaborate around issues of sustainability
• Integrate environmental issues with campus stewardship to gain an understanding that the classroom extends to the entire campus—including facilities, grounds, and the built environment
• Encourage service learning experiences that extend academic studies of environmental sustainability into the community

In 2020-2021, an interdisciplinary team of UF staff and faculty collaborated to create the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Faculty Guide. This resource serves to support faculty looking to incorporate the SDGs, an internationally-recognized framework for sustainability, into their syllabi and courses. To learn more about this effort and read the guide, please visit the Masters in Sustainable Development Department website.
