How Education for Sustainable Development contributes to quality education
The School as a Place for Practice is Djapo’s vision on how
Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) contributes to
an education that gives children and adolescents opportunities
to occupy a mindful and resilient position in society. Djapo’s
vision of ESD suggests a contemporary approach in which
educators use the complexity and urgency of societal issues to
generate fertile, relevant opportunities for development.
ESD is sometimes seen as separate from and additional to an
already well-rounded educational curriculum. This publication
changes this view, providing a practice-based vision of ESD as
a unique opportunity to strengthen our educational system.
