Quality Education

How we work

The most important goal of ESD is to enable learners to participate actively and self-determinedly in shaping the present and the future. ESD supports the development of personal, professional, methodological and social competences that allow learners to perceive their own place in the world and to deal critically and creatively with a complex, globalised world with different values, dynamic developments, contradictions and uncertainties.

... and why

The vision of éducation21 is that children and young people acquire competences in schools and lessons that enable them to participate actively and critically in sustainable development.
