The Lemelson Foundation is inviting select organizations to collaborate on the review and release of a new teaching guide aligned to the Engineering for One Planet Framework of Essential Sustainability Learning Outcomes. This document outlines the background and details of this by-invitation opportunity.
Invitation to collaborate on reviewing and disseminating new climate-focused teaching guide
Based on shared strategic priorities and aligned audiences, we are inviting select engineering associations, organizations, and networks to collaborate on publishing and disseminating this new climate-focused teaching guide with us. It is our intention that this coalition will gain value from both working together and equipping each other’s networks with a tool that can be used by educators, corporate trainers, and individuals interested in learning foundational climate skills and science in the context of the engineering profession.
Basics of collaboration
This collaboration is an opportunity to elevate our collective agenda and visibility to different networks with similar interests. There is no financial contribution expected from any collaborator. The Lemelson Foundation is covering the costs of drafting and designing the guide.
Collaborators contribute to the success of the project through:
1. Providing confirmation of your interest in collaborating and the name and email address of the organization leader responsible for signing the collaboration agreement to cindyc@lemelson.org by November 3, 2025
2. Providing organizational logo and overview to EOP staff by November 14
3. Approving logo usage and organizational overview design by December 19
4. Identifying appropriate audiences and dissemination mechanisms within their networks
5. Disseminating the guide to their audiences in 2026
6. Responding to messages or requests related to this project in a timely manner
Please contact cindyc@lemelson.org if you have suggestions.
