FY2008
The Regional Strategy Consultation Meeting on Education for Sustainable Development in South-East Asia
The consultation meeting aimed to present and discuss existing policies and strategies for implementing ESD in South-East Asia and to give examples of practice in the form of projects and programmes which share the characteristics of the goals, principles, and values of ESD. The workshop also provided a valuable opportunity to gather diverse perspectives on ESD amongst South-East Asian countries’ governmental officers (from the Ministry of Environment/the Ministry of Education), UN organisations (e.g. UNDP, UNEP, UNESCO and UNU), international organisations (such as ASEAN, WWF and The Japan Foundation), academic researchers and practitioners at schools/ NGOs.
