19. The DESD aims at changing the approach to education so that it
can integrate the principles, values and practices of
sustainable development.
Its goal can be broken down into four key objectives:
• Facilitating networking, and collaboration
among stakeholders of ESD;
• Fostering greater quality of teaching and
learning of environmental topics;
• Supporting countries in achieving their
millennium development goals through ESD
efforts; and
• Providing countries with new opportunities
and tools to reform education.

27. Recognizing that how sustainable development and related
educational processes are attained will vary from context to
context, the above stated key objectives will share the key task
for UNESCO to perform its role as lead agency of the Decade.
UNESCO’s role, including its member States, are defined by the
four major thrust of ESD, as follows:
• Improving access to quality basic education;
• Reorienting existing educational programs;
• Developing public understanding and
awareness; and
• Proving training

responsible decision-making, however, cities also hold
promising opportunities for social and economic
advancement and for environmental improvements at
local, national, and global levels.

knowledge and skills for lifelong learning to
help them find new solutions to their
