Goodbye!
The concept:
Education for Sustainable Development
The concept was established in 1992
at The United Nations Conference on Environment
and Development in Rio de Janeiro. Chapter 36
in the Agenda 21 Declaration stated that education
is crucial to further sustainable development
and improve people's ability to solve our environmental
and development problems.
The Johannesburg Summit broadened the visions
for sustainable development. Once again it was
stressed that education is a key factor in realizing
the visions. This leaded to a proposal for a Decade
for Education for Sustainable Development. The
proposal was adopted by the UN General Assembly
in December 2002 - and the period 2005-2014 was
declared United Nations Decade of Education for
Sustainable Development (DESD or ESD10). UNESCO
(the United Nations Educational, Scientific and
Cultural Organisation) was selected to lead the
task of informing about and implementing the Decade.

UNESCO presents the vision
for ESD10: The Decade of Education for Sustainable
Development pursues a global vision:
The vision of education for sustainable development
is a world where everyone has the opportunity
to benefit from quality education and learn the
values, behaviour and lifestyles required for
a sustainable future and for positive societal
transformation. The proposed DESD objectives are
to:
1. give an enhanced profile to the central role
of education and learning in the common pursuit
of sustainable development;
2. facilitate links and networking, exchange and
interaction among stakeholders in ESD;
3. provide a space and opportunity for refining
and promoting the vision of, and transition to
sustainable development - through all forms of
learning and public awareness;
4. foster increased quality of teaching and learning
in education for sustainable development;
5. develop strategies at every level to strengthen
capacity in ESD.
The Danish ESD10 Opening Conference:
- provides an outstanding opportunity to meet
people from the Danish Education System as well
as Danish and international supporters of the
process following the Rio and Johannesburg summits
about Sustainable Development. The conference
is aimed at all kinds of decision makers and teachers
in the Danish Education System as well as students,
consultants, scientists, grass-roots, organizations,
authorities and employees, who might all be interested
in Education for Sustainable Development.
The conference will introduce you to many different
views at ESD in Denmark from many levels in the
Education System. It will cover a broad range
of aspects - from basic school to adult education.
One of the main purposes of the conference is
to provide the opportunity to create networks
and take part in the dialogue and debate related
to the presented themes and invited speakers.
Welcome!
