Knowledge, values and skills for international, intercultural and community cooperation and peace

  • participate and co-operate with others in increasingly pluralistic, multi-cultural societies
  • develop an understanding of other people and their histories, traditions, beliefs, values and cultures
  • tolerate, respect, welcome, embrace, and even celebrate difference and diversity in people
  • respond constructively to the cultural diversity and economic disparity found around the world
  • be able to cope with situations of tension, exclusion, conflict, violence, and terrorism

Education for Sustainable Development:

  • is interdisciplinary. No one discipline can claim ESD for its own, but all disciplines can contribute to it.
  • builds civil capacity for community-based decision-making, social tolerance, environmental stewardship, adaptable workforce and quality of life.
