A Reflection and Self-assessment Handbook (2014)
This handbook has been created to assist those facilitating Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) and Development Education to improve their practices through reflection and self-assessment of their own activities according to objectives outlined by ESD and Development Education. In order to realize a more sustainable society, we must fundamentally change structures that are making our society “unsustainable” . To this end, it is essential that we become aware of the core issues and their root causes that contribute to making our society unsustainable. We must also think of what an ideal society might be like, and become leaders, actively participating in an effort to foster a just and sustainable global community. It is the aim of ESD and Development Education to nurture such future leaders.
