Rebecca Turner reviews the past year for the Green Careers Hub

Well, this past year has certainly flown by! We launched the Green Careers Hub in June 2023, and it has generated huge interest as awareness and traffic continues to grow.

This special issue of Transform, in partnership with the Green Careers Hub, has an education and careers focus, with features from the University of Bath and the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education.

Chris Seekings’ article, Shaping young minds, shows that there is a real gap in supporting educational institutions on green careers. In the future, we plan to explore how the Green Careers Hub can support schools, colleges and careers leaders.

I particularly enjoyed reading the article by Feyi Osifuwa on the importance of diversity of thought for a green economy, drawing on her own experiences of education and work. The Diverse Sustainability Initiative is doing fantastic work in this space – please take a look at the website to find out more: www.diversesustainability.net
