Education for sustainable development

Education for sustainable development (ESD) aims at tackling the complexities of the world in its civic, ethical and scientific dimensions. As a cross cutting issue, it is included in the school curriculum.

A better understanding of the relationship between socio-cultural, economic and environmental issues must help learners to better perceive:

● The interdependence of human societies

● The need to adopt attitudes that reflect these balances

● The importance of global solidarity

The purpose of education for sustainable development is to give future citizens the means to make choices by making arguments including complex issues of sustainable development that allows them to make decisions, act logically and responsibly, either in private life or in the public sphere.
