Description

Peace and security are fundamental to human dignity and development. The sustainable development of any culture is always endangered by insecurity and conflict. Human tragedies result in overwhelmed health-care systems; the destruction of homes, schools, and communities; and increased numbers of displaced people and refugees. Education for sustainable development plays a key role in promoting values for peace. Theories and practical examples of global education, peace education, capacity-building education, and social justice are explored, and literature linking peace education and sustainability is examined.
