Att lära för FN:s Globala Mål – utmaningar och möjligheter med ämnesövergripande och samskapande undervisning i förskolan

Since 2015, discussions on how to educate the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have been under the scope of the international community, while research in SDG education in particular for early childhood education is still scarce. This paper builds on focus groups discussions with pre-school personel to explore challenges and opportunities with educating and learning the SDGs for children between 1-5 years. The analysis shows that (1) despite the intention of an interdisciplinary teaching, questions about sustainable development and Agenda 2030 tend to be fragmented, 2) preschool teachers perceive the organisational conditions of preschools as beneficial for teaching for sustainable development, and 3) the children's interest is given great importance and is often seen as a prerequisite for the teachers work, but at the same time a dilemma is expressed with losing goals and focus.
