Statistics as a Platform in Education for Sustainable Development





Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is a rather new field of education. We can see it as an innovative kind of future education for school linking the child's development with the future challenges of society.

Using statistical tools and treatment, we give better evaluation on how this vision are being achieved. It provides tool on how we can give better basis and recommendations for improvement. Making the concept of sustainable development operational for public policies raises important challenges in terms of measurement. Without indicators or a quantitative framework, sustainable development policies lack a solid foundation on which to advance.

I prepared a video presentation of our school and interviewed few of my students about  how does learning in school enable them to be aware of the issues in their society. After watching please do response with the question "What is the issue/issues are more evident in your community?".(Sorry internet connection is not sufficient for me to upload it. I'll try again next time, stay tune!)
