Activists, interest groups, politicians, or companies – each makes a contribution or has the potential to contribute to societal development. Sustainable Development is a vision, which is promoted through individuals. Education for Sustainable Development is empowerment for sustainable change. Learning and education builds a bridge between the content of sustainability and the initiative of the people.
The most popular and most widely accepted definition of Sustainable Development from the World Commission on Environment and Development is: “Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” But what does this mean in your society?
"Education is a human right with immense power to transform. On its foundation rest the cornerstones of freedom, democracy, and sustainable human development.”
Kofi Annan
