RCE Kano's maiden quiz competition, held towards the end of 2017, engendered critical thinking and transformative learning amongst students in Nigeria through its ESD debate: 

  • Students acquired knowledge on ESD, SD, SDGs and GAP as well as understood the nexus of the three pillars of development
  • The event brought both the schools and the students closer to global agendas on education and sustainability and increased awareness towards them
  • Students were able to make informed decisions and know the roles they can play in the implementation of ESD and in achieving sustainable development
  • The relevance of sustainability in secondary schools curricula was revealed
  • The event provided concrete examples to abstract concepts to the benefits of the schools, the students and the society
