Abstract
This article employs the experiential learning theory (ELT) through the construction of interventions to promote education for sustainability. This work contributes to understanding how constructivist approaches to learning can lead to a new proposal for management teaching, fostering sustainable development. Observing the need to develop a model, design science research was used as a research method to elaborate and test an artifact. The results demonstrated the effectiveness of the model. They indicated that, by adopting the ELT as a background to develop the initiative, it is possible to achieve the outcomes expected from the education for sustainability, especially encouraging reflections to change behaviors, increasing knowledge, and developing competencies for sustainability.
