From sustainability competences (GreenComp) to sustainable behaviour

cover
(1) GreenComp is the recently published European Sustainability Competence Framework, which identifies sustainability competences that learners need for a more sustainable society. (2) This policy brief uses behavioural insights and evidence to assess whether and how these sustainability competences can make learners behave in a more sustainable way. (3) GreenComp’s competences leverage several proven psychological drivers of sustainable behaviour, and also address psychological barriers that evidence links to unsustainable behaviour. (4) The sustainability competences identified in GreenComp can thus indeed help learners behave more sustainably. This review therefore confirms the potential of acquiring these sustainability competences to contribute to a more sustainable society.
