In this first episode of RE-ACT, we examine how education can be reoriented to foster planetary well-being in times of profound disruption.

We explore a defining question of our time: how can education cultivate planetary well-being amid climate change, ecological collapse, and social fragmentation? Inspired by Wordsworth’s insight that humanity is “out of tune” with nature, Raphael Costambeys-Kempczynski speaks with Iveta Silova, Manon Sala, and Victoria Haro about educational approaches that reconnect learners with living systems. The discussion examines pluriversal, experiential, and regenerative pedagogies, and how higher education can foreground intergenerational well-being over competition and growth. How can we reimagine education as a space for planetary citizenship and ethical responsibility?
