The main societal issues that have appeared repeatedly and amplified over the last decade, particularly those related to climate, biodiversity and pandemics, have revealed the need for a collective awareness, informed and documented on the scientific, sociological, economic, social and cultural interactions that constitute their framework.

The following article provides an overview of what education for sustainable development is all about.

    In order to achieve a more sustainable society, action is needed. To do so, understanding the environment around us is essential. Thus, I believe that the education plays a key role in the sustainable development. People cannot take action on their own scale without knowing the issues of the climate crisis and the world we live in.
    Indeed, youth and its education should be given the utmost importance.

    Great article, I think there should be more talk about the economic, social and political relationship between the Global North and Global South to fully understand “sustainable development” and the best way forward.
