The Fundisa for Change collaborative programme offers an online platform for educators to engage in curriculum-activated transformative learning, integrating human rights, social justice, inclusivity, and environmental sustainability, empowering learners to make informed decisions and take responsible actions for a just, inclusive future while respecting cultural diversity.

Key Principles

Effective Integration

To support successful learning, it is also important to give adequate attention to high-quality assessments. Assessment should be oriented to support better learning and should support teachers and learners to better understand what is going well and what can be improved. Finally, environmental content in the curriculum has the potential to shape and inform the practical life of the school as it can contribute to creating healthy learning environments.

The Fundisa for Change courses are specially designed to strengthen the integration of the principle on human rights, social justice, inclusivity and a healthy environment into the teaching of CAPS in ways that support transformative learning, as well as transform learning environments, allowing teachers and learners to contribute to building environmentally sustainable and healthy schools and society, as envisaged in the South African Constitution.

“To begin, start with the Core Introduction course: Introduction to ESD Teaching Practices and Fundisa (Teach) for Change. This foundational module aligns the Fundisa for Change program with the CAPS curriculum, emphasising transformative teaching, learning, and assessment methods. It also shows how Fundisa for Change subject courses support comprehensive school development and transformative learning environments.”

Our courses are tailored specifically for South African educators and teacher education. You have the option to complete the courses independently online or to engage in a more immersive experience by joining one of our groups.
