Education for Sustainable Development ( ESD) is recognized as an integral element of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4 on quality education and a key enabler of all other SDGs. Education is the lynchpin of our sustainable development agenda.
It needs to be incorporated into all levels of education right from pre-primary and primary to university level as well as diverse professions. Its success relies on individuals, throughout their lifetime, acquiring relevant knowledge and developing positive attitudes to address global challenges that we are facing today!
The National Education Policy 2020 (NEP 2020), launched on 29 July 2020, outlines the vision of India’s new education system. NEP 2020 focuses on five pillars: Affordability, Accessibility, Quality, Equity, and Accountability – to ensure continual learning.
The NEP has laid stress on competency-based education. SDG 4.7 aims to ensure that all learners acquire the knowledge and skills required to live a sustainable lifestyle on the planet earth. The question is how NEP can integrate this requirement of the future through 4.7. Our programs and resources outline the scope.
“By 2030 ensure all learners acquire knowledge and skills needed to promote sustainable development, including among others through education for sustainable development and sustainable lifestyles, human rights, gender equality, promotion of a culture of peace and non-violence, global citizenship, and appreciation of cultural diversity and of culture’s contribution to sustainable development.”
