Richard Dunne is the founder and director of The Harmony Project, an education charity working with schools and educators in the UK and around the world to help them integrate principles of nature into the curriculum so that learners understand how these principles can inform a new way of living that is sustainable and well. Richard developed this approach in his previous role as Headteacher of an Ofsted-graded outstanding school, and he now shares this way of learning across the education sector through speeches, presentations and workshops. He has written a Harmony teachers’ guide to enable teachers and educators to implement this way of learning into their education settings. The guide is being promoted as a blueprint for education for sustainability with the DfE and has been translated into 8 languages.
