Why is it important to learn about Sustainable Development?
Sustainable literate people have sufficient knowledge, skills, and understanding of the green economy and concerns to be able to analyse and make informed decisions about environmental and social issues.
Increasing sustainable literacy is essential to ensuring that everyone, at every education and income level and in all sectors, are able to participate in developing a cleaner, more prosperous green economy and sustainable future. It is vital to enable marginalised people and communities to participate in, and benefit from, the transition to a more resilient sustainable and just society, build sustainable communities, and respond to the climate crisis.
