UNESCO World Conference on Education for Sustainable Development

Our planet and its inhabitants are under increasing pressure: Human-induced climate change, limited and recklessly exploited resources, rising temperatures and sea levels, pollution and shrinking biodiversity are just a few of the issues governments and populations face around the world.

The Conference raises awareness of these challenges, highlights the crucial role of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) as a key enabler for the successful achievement of all SDGs, and creates momentum for strengthening ESD in policy and practice.
