Abstract
The book chapter discusses the STEPWISE (Science & Technology Education Promoting Wellbeing for Individuals, Societies & Environments) curricular and pedagogical framework that may help achieve ecojustice goals, which is elaborately described, illustrated, and problematized. It explains that there are needs for science and technology programmes to educate students about possibly-problematic power relations involving science and technology and prepare them to develop and implement informed sociopolitical actions to overcome the harms of their concern.
