The UN’s High-Level Panel on
Global Sustainability
In early 2012, the UN’s High-Level Panel on Global Sustainability — chaired by
Presidents Zuma of South Africa and Halonen of Finland
— noted the need for “The international community to measure development beyond gross domestic product (GDP)
and develop a new sustainable development index or set of indicators.”

United Nations Decade of Education for
Sustainable Development
Education in its general sense is a form of lerning in which
the knowledge, slills and habits of a group of people are
transferred from one generation to the next through teaching,
training, or research. Education frequently takes place under
the guidance of others, but may also be autodidactic.
Systematic thinking – acknowledging complexities and looking for links and
synergies, when trying to find solutions to problems.
Participation in decision-making – empowering people.
Envisioning – being able to imagine a better future. The premise is that if we
know where we want to go, we will be better able to work out how to get there.
Critical thinking and reflection – learning to question our current belief systems
and to recognize the assumptions underlying our knowledge, perspective and
opinions. Critical thinking skills help people learn to examine economic,
environmental, social and cultural structures in the context of sustainable
development.
Building partnerships – promoting dialogue and negotiation, learning to work
together.
11
The objectives of the UN Decade
ESD are to:
• facilitate networking linkages, exchange and interaction among stakeholders in ESD;
• foster increased quality of teaching and learning in ESD;
• help countries make progress towards and attain the Millennium Development
Goals through ESD efforts;
• provide countries with new opportunities to incorporate ESD into education reform
efforts.
Concepts development for the education
12
UN DECADE ESD HAS BEEN NEEDED FOCUS ON:
• reorienting educational programmes - rethinking and revising education from
nursery school through university to include a clear focus on the development of
knowledge, skills, perspectives and values related to sustainability,
• building public understanding and awareness - achieving the goals of
sustainable development requires widespread community education and a
responsible media committed to encouraging an informed and actived citizens,
• providing practical training - all sectors of the workforce can contribute to local,
regional and national sustainability,
• creating synergies with the other global initiatives that preceded it, like the
Millenium Development Goals (centered on the reduction of poverty) and
Education For All (focuses on the universal access to education).

22. Values education
Introduction
The values and attitudes we live by affect how we relate to other people and to all our activities in the environment,
and so are a major influence on our prospects for achieving a sustainable future.
Although they cannot be separated from cognitive understanding, values and attitudes relate to the affective (or
emotional) dimension of human behaviour. While values and attitudes are similar in this regard, they differ in several
important ways.
Values are generally long-term standards or principles that are used to judge the worth of an idea or action. They
provide the criteria by which we decide whether something is good or bad, right or wrong.
Attitudes predispose us to respond in particular ways to people and events. They are not so deeply felt as values and
quite often change as a result of experience.
This module provides an opportunity to consider the importance of human values and attitudes in shaping the future.
It also provides ideas and examples for two categories of strategies for exploring values in the classroom – values
clarification and values analysis.
Objectives
To develop an understanding of values education strategies;
To consider the relation between values and personal behaviour affecting the achievement of sustainable futures;
To reflect on your futures awareness, commitment and actions; and
To develop skills for using values clarification and values analysis in teaching.
Activities

Values education - Reflection
Begin by opening your Learning Journal for this activity.
Completing the module: Look back through the activities and tasks to check that you have done them
all and to change any that you think you can improve now that you have come to the end of the module.
Values education aims to achieve two basic outcomes:
• Helping students to better understand the values that guide their own daily lives, and
• Contributing to changes in values held collectively by communities and personally by individuals.
In Education for Sustainable Development, the direction of this change is toward increased
understanding, tolerance and fairness toward other humans (through social equity, peace and
democracy) and toward sustainability in the use of resources drawn from the natural environment
(through appropriate development and conservation).
Q: Identify eight key values that you believe can contribute to achieving a sustainable future.
Q: Outline how the Copper Mine exercise (or a similar issue – perhaps one in your own country) could
be adapted to use with a class you teach.

DECLARATION
• Despite unprecedented economic growth in the 20th century, persistent poverty and inequality still affect too
many people, especially those that are most vulnerable.
• The global financial and economic crises highlights the risks of unsustainable economic development models and
practices based on short-term gains.
• The food crisis and world hunger are an increasingly serious issue.
• Unsustainable production and consumption patterns are creating ecological impacts that compromise the options
of current and future generations and the sustainability of life on Earth, as climate change is showing.
• All countries will need to work collaboratively to ensure sustainable development now and in the future.
• Investment in ESD is an investment in the future, and can be a life-saving measure, especially in post-conflict and
least developed countries.
• Education should be of a quality that provides the values, knowledge, skills and competencies for sustainable
living and participation in society and decent work.
• Through education and lifelong learning we can achieve lifestyles based on economic and social justice, food
security, ecological integrity, sustainable livelihoods, respect for all life forms and strong values that foster social
cohesion, democracy and collective action.
• Education for sustainable development is immediately necessary for securing sustainable life chances, aspirations
and futures for young people.

An Agenda 21 for Education
in the Baltic Sea Region – Baltic 21E
Overall goal for Education
All individuals should have competence to support a sustainable
development that meets the needs of the present without compromising on
the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Education for sustainable development should be based on an
integrated approach to economic, societal and environmental
development.
Goal for higher education
The individual learner should have such skills and competence relevant to their future
professions and future roles as decision-makers. Higher education should also play an
active role locally, nationally, and internationally in enhancing knowledge and action
competence regarding sustainable development through research and education in cooperation with surrounding society.
Goal for schools
The individual learner should have the knowledge, values and skills to be active, democratic and responsible citizens
and to participate in decisions at individual, as well as at different levels within society, locally and globally, to
contribute to creating a sustainable society. Learners in vocational education should also have skills and competencies
relevant to their future professions.
This will require the following:
• legal provisions that clearly include ESD,
• ESD is part of regular teaching and learning in school and the basis of all school life,
• educators have relevant competence to include SD in their teaching ,
• Suitable learning methods and a learning environment positive to SD.

SAEIMA OF THE REPUBLIC
OF LATVIA
Change of Paradigm in Education
In order to multiply the human capital at our disposal and
to use other capitals fully, for example, culture, nature and
economic capitals, change of paradigm in education is
necessary. Available lifelong education of good quality is the
necessity of the 21st century, because only educated society
which is open to creative activity is capable to work
efficiently.
Qualitative and Available Lifelong Education
• Access to Education and Changes in Organisation of Educational Process
• School as the Centre of Social Networking
• Contextual Education and Shift in the Profession of Teacher
• E-school and Use of Information Technologies
• Lifelong Education – from Pre-school to Further Education of Adults
Indicators 2030
• Number of children in pre-school institutions at the age of four, % of the total number of children >95
• Participation of inhabitants in adult education, % of the age group 25-64 >14
• Proportion of the persons, who have acquired higher education in the age group from 30 up to 34, % >40

Voices of students
International student’ s group, Uppsala University
It is time to move on now. We do not have
much time left, and we can no longer allow
laggards to get in our way.
It is time to leave them behind and agree with
people on ideas that will actually move the
humanity forward - towards a future that is attractive, fair and
sustainable, a future shaped by us, not by the
people that have a vested interest in maintaining
the status quo.
With the tools we have at our disposal, with vision and networking, truth-telling, learning
and love, we are sure our generation can change the world towards a better future.
46
Our future needs for improvement
of the educational system and ESD
Unfortunately, educational system of Latvia is not ready yet fulfilled all educational goals, which are following
from binding documents of the European Union (EU Sustainable Development Strategy) and United Nations (Decade
of Education for Sustainable development: 2005-2014). Therefore we need:
• substantially improve qualification of school teachers to be integrated and provide complex understanding for
learners about the world and main processes going in it,
• ensure education for sustainable development for pedagogical study programmes students,
• elaborate study courses content, text books, methodical materials,
• work-out national tests for compulsory schools, possibly one test for each education level on sustainable
development, because integrated teaching through many subjects not to let evaluate knowledge of the sustainable
development,
• prepare e-course and educate acting school teachers, possibly using life-long education system (award - better
knowledge on topic and higher salary likewise),
• organise national network of school teachers, lectures and professors of universities and researchers working on
ESD/SD.
