Pre-conference workshops, from September 2020 to April 2021
In preparation of the UNESCO World Conference on ESD, UNESCO is organizing a series of online workshops on the transformative power of Education for sustainable development for redesigning a more sustainable and just world beyond Covid-19.
About
Our planet and its inhabitants are under increasing pressure: Human-induced climate change, limited and recklessly exploited resources, rising temperatures and sea levels, pollution and shrinking biodiversity are just a few of the issues governments and populations face around the world. The Conference will raise awareness of these challenges, highlight the crucial role of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) as a key enabler for the successful achievement of all SDGs, and create momentum for strengthening ESD in policy and practice.
When and where?
The UNESCO World Conference on Education for Sustainable Development will be held from 17 to 19 May 2021 in Berlin, Germany, and partly as a virtual conference.
The conference is organized by UNESCO in cooperation with and generously supported by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research of Germany, and with the German Commission for UNESCO as advisory partner.
Participation
Participation to the conference is by invitation only.
All UNESCO Member States will be invited to attend the event and nominate a delegation including participants from diverse backgrounds.
