Abstract

Early Years Pupils as Participants in Education for Sustainable Development The role of education as a catalyst of sustainable development was highlighted in Agenda 21, a non binding action plan adopted by the United Nations during the Earth Summit. The General Assembly of the United Nations established the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development 2005–2014 in an effort to initiate an important transition in the education system. Signatories to the Strategy of Education for Sustainable Development, which was adopted in 2005 by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, are obliged to incorporate education for sustainable development into their domestic formal education systems at all levels and fields of study. Education for sustainable development is one of the protective factors for the environment. Its main task is to develop natural and social environments that foster the ecological sustainability of the world’s population while raising eco-friendly awareness and eco-friendly attitudes. Early years education is an ideal moment to drive the education-for-sustainable-development agenda. Research suggests that early years education is a suitable moment to initiate the process in which eco-friendly awareness and attitudes are shaped. However, to instil the idea of sustainable development in children, it is necessary that one abandons traditional models and patterns of life. Thus, the focus of education must be on shaping open, creative and innovative attitudes. The process of children education should promote values that are fundamental to the holistic view of life.
