ESD is the abbreviation for Education for Sustainable Development. What is meant is education that enables people to think and act in a sustainable way. It enables each individual to understand the effects of their own actions on the world.
ESD enables people to think and act in a sustainable way. Various questions are in the foreground. For example: How do my decisions affect people of future generations in my municipality or in other parts of the world? What effects does it have, for example, how I consume, which means of transport I use or which and how much energy I use? Which global mechanisms lead to conflict, terror and displacement? Or what can we do about poverty?
ESD enables everyone to understand the effects of their own actions on the world and to make responsible, sustainable decisions.
