Learning for sustainability - competences and expectations

Abstract

Abstract The concept of sustainable development can play a key role for various knowledge-based sectors, a major factor in the educational system, focused on addressing the problems that exist and preventing new social, economic and environmental ones. The article examines the definition of sustainability, the point of learning aimed at environmental sustainability. The new European Sustainability Competence Framework that outlines the competencies necessary for the ecological transition, including critical thinking, initiatives, conservation of nature and taking responsibility for the negative impact of everyday actions and decisions on the environment and climate worldwide, has been examined here.
