**Abstract:** Education for environmental citizenship (EEC) is a crucial component of the effort to promote societies that are aware of sustainable lifestyles and able and motivated to adopt them, and such education is acknowledged as a key component within the discourse around 21st-century global processes. A global trend calling for the incorporation of environmental and sustainability education in formal and nonformal educational systems is becoming increasingly prevalent. In line with this global trend, the present paper presents a course that will be conducted within the framework of the Master's programs at Beit Berl College in cooperation with international partners (lecturers, students). The course incorporates the ENEC's (COST action) conceptualization of EC and EEC, including the pedagogical model developed within ENEC. The course has the potential to have a wide impact on educational practice and curriculum in the field (both formal and non-formal).
