Abstract






The United Nations announced the 2005 to 2014 as 

the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development.

 Central to this declaration was the idea that the goal 

of attaining a sustainable future can never be 

achieved without education and learning for 

sustainable development. This idea has been widely 

accepted and supported by governments worldwide.




To this date, most of the United Nations member 

states have national plans for integrating the

framework of Education for Sustainable Development 

(ESD) into their education and sustainability policies. 

As ESD implementation has emerged as a political 

priority around the world, there is a growing need to 

critically examine the potential impact of ESD in 

bringing about the desirable changes for a sustainable

 future. With an attempt to contribute to this body of

literature, this doctoral study seeks to understand in 

what ways and to what extent a nationwide education 

policy can (or have the potential to) contribute to 

global sustainable development.

1-Introduction




Sustainability







Sustainability is a societal goal that relates to the ability

of people to safely co-exist on Earth over a long time.

Specific definitions of sustainability are difficult to agree

 on and have varied with literature, context, and time.

[Sustainability is commonly described as having three

dimensions (or pillars): environmental, economic, and

social. Many publications state that the environmental

dimension is the most important.




For this reason, in everyday use, "sustainability" is often

focused on countering major environmental problems,

such as climate change, loss of biodiversity, loss of ecosystem services,

 land degradation, and air and water pollution. The concept of

sustainability can be used to guide decisions at the global,

national, and individual levels (e.g. sustainable living).






Where does the term come from?


While the concept of sustainability is a relatively new idea,

 the movement as a whole has roots in social justice,

conservationism,internationalism and other past

movements with rich histories. By the end of the twentieth

centuries, many of these ideas had come together in the

call for ‘sustainable development.




This research study discusses the linking of education

 to international development, and examines the

 relevant actions of agencies and governments in

 a number of economically developing countries.

This study includes Sustainability, role of education

 and roles of The UN through its summits and 

conferences.





1-The Research Vision, Mission and Objectives:


The vision is: Our globe lives in peace, development

, prosperity and happiness). The vision of this study

 is to support you in  developing the skills, knowledge

 and terminology to understand and act on the

 relationship between education and development.




  Education, like other forms of investment in human

capital, can contribute to economic development and

 raise the incomes of the poor just as much as

 investment in physical capital, such as transport,

communications, power, or irrigation.




The mission is : Doing research theses




The Objectives :


1-Redusing the  number of inhabitants who live under


 the low level of income.


2-Saving people infected with serious diseases.


3-
Reducing deaths from tuberculosis.





The problem:


The problem is: We, the researching group, noticed


 that our planet suffers from poverty, injustice, violence,


 pollution, ignorance, intolerance, wars, terrorism,


 climate changes, low incomes and illiteracy. 





3-Reasons for the research:


The reason for doing such research is that I and my

colleagues noticed that there are many poor countries,

 poor individuals, unjust distribution for the properties

 and illiterate people. After preliminary interviews with

 the senior managers and teachers at schools,

we have identified our areas of the interest:

organizational structure, leadership, and communication.





4- The researching questions:

How does education affects development and solve

our global problems in the field of peace, culture,

 economy, social system and human rights .

 How we make education organizations perform

well and learning outcomes high?





The results section is where I reported the findings of

my study based upon the  methodologies I applied to

gather information. I used case studies, interviews and

 gathered data at the organizations of schools,

 associations and zones of education. I reached to

some findings.





Environmental Sustainability


Ecological integrity is maintained, all of earth’s 

environmental systems are kept in balance while natural 

resources within them are consumed by humans at 

a rate where they are able to replenish themselves.


The United Nations (UN) defines sustainability simply as

“meeting the needs of the present without compromising the

ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”

“I like this definition,” said Mike Weinstein, director of

sustainability at SNHU. “It asks us to consider two things;

 first, what are ‘needs?’ And secondly, what is life beyond

ourselves?”.




Weinstein describes “needs” as clean water, healthy food

and stable housing and points out that billions of people 

still lack access to some combination of those needs.

According to Water, a global nonprofit organization, 

about onein 10 people, or 771 million people, do not 

have access to safe water






Economic Sustainability

Human communities across the globe are able to maintain

their independence and have access to the resources that

they require, financial and other, to meet their needs.

Economic systems are intact and activities are available to

everyone, such as secure sources of livelihood.



Social Sustainability

Universal human rights and basic necessities are 

attainable by all people, who have access to enough 

resources in order to keep their families and 

communities healthy and secure.


Healthy communities have just leaders who ensure 

personal, labour and cultural rights are respected and 

all people are protected from discrimination.



We wrote a report that included our data, solutions and

recommendations we presented.

Our teachers, senior teachers, schools managers and

education organizations leaders learnt the relation

 between education and development through the

 following the key findings and secondary findings

 we presented.





I will Present a result and then explain it, before

 presenting the next result then explaining it, and so on,

 then end with an overall synopsis.This is the preferred

 approach as I have multiple results of equal significance.

 It is more common in longer papers because it helps the

 reader to better understand each finding.


Finding result   1 :





Sustainability:


Thus, the authors consider sustainability to be a paradigm

 for thinking about a future in which environmental, 

societal, and economic considerations are balanced in 

the pursuit of development and improved quality of life.





Sustainability is a broad discipline, giving students

and graduates insights into most aspects of the human

 world from business to technology to environment and

 the social sciences.




The core skills with which a graduates leaves college or

 university are highly sought after, especially in a modern

 world looking to drastically reduce carbon emissions and

 discover and develop the technologies of the future.



Sustainability draws on politics, economics and, 

philosophy and other social sciences as well as the

 hard sciences.



Sustainability skills and environmental awareness is a

priority in many corporate jobs at graduate level and over

 as businesses seek to adhere to new legislation.



Therefore, Sustainability graduates will go into many

 fields but most commonly civic planning, environmental

consultancy (built and natural environment), agriculture,

not for profit, corporate strategies, health assessment

and planning, and even into law and decision making.

Entry-level jobs are growing and over the coming years,

bachelors graduates can expect more and more options

 and opportunities.





Why sustainability?



The motivations behind sustainability are often complex,

personal and diverse. It is unrealistic to create a list of 

reasons why so many individuals, groups and 

communities are working towards this goal. Yet,

 for most people, sustainability comes down to 

the kind of future we are leaving for the next generation.





Sustainability as a value is shared by many individuals 

and organizations who demonstrate this value in their 

policies,everyday activities and behaviors. Individuals 

have played a major role in developing our current 

environmental and social circumstances. The people

 of today along with future generations must create 

solutions and adapt.




Environmental sustainability is important to preserve

resources like clean air, water and wildlife for future

generations.




Another important sustainability definition that Weinstein 

likes is: “Ensuring that human society operates with 

ecological  borders.” This definition is known as the 

planetary boundary (PB) concept. It was introduced in 

2009 to define where humans can operate safely within 

the environment's constraints, according to Science, an 

online research organization. It’s important to understand 

that humans do have boundaries, and it’s important to 

understand where those are to maintain sustainability.





Although, most of the world is very disconnected from the

basic functioning of the planet and it’s easy to lose sight of

essential factors, according to Weinstein. For example,

humans are members of Earth and live in the same 

spaces as the rest of the living beings on the planet. 

“Our current economic activity ignores these boundaries,” 

Weinstein said.


 




2-Materials and Methods




 In order to find out the answer to the research question

 and to fulfill both purposes of the research, we have

 conducted a qualitative research. We used types

of qualitative research methods like an in-depth interview,

focus groups, ethnographic research, content analysis

 and case study research that are usually used.




This has been done by interviewing hundreds of

 people in the streets, educated people at schools,

 universities and several associations, farmers in

the fields, workers in the factories, employees in

the companies, learners at schools, women,

 young and elders everywhere.




We have tried to talk to representatives of different

 layers of the organizations to make our research

 more diverse and complete. These semi-structured

 interviews resulted in qualitative data, which had

 been processed and analyzed using coding technique.





Our research used 2 methods:

One of academic character, and one of practical character.


1-The academic purpose is in investigating relationship

between Education and Development.


2-The practical purpose is in giving analysis-based

recommendations about possible ways to implement

 education to solve our global and cultural problems.


3-We used team work, pair work, individual work,

interviews, lectures, debates, experiencing, observations,

 analysis, synthesis, assessment, feedback and evaluation.



4-We held workshops, modeling, training units authentic

 field practice in actual fields and we assessed, followed

 and evaluated what we recommended academically before.

 It took 6 months to conduct our experiences that we

acquired from our professors in East Anglia University,

 England.


 




5-Discussion


The purpose of the discussion is to interpret and

 describe the significance of our findings in light of

 what was already known about the research

 problem being investigated and to explain any

 new understanding or insights that emerged as a

 result of our study of the problem.




DISCUSSION provides the explanation and interpretation

of results or findings by comparing with the findings in

 prior studies. Then, I can say that: compared to the

previous study about (Education for sustainable development),

 I say that my research is different . My research

recommended the following:


 


Role of education

   

  Education........................................


is based on the principles and values that underlie sustainable


development.

deals with the environment, society, culture and economy.

uses critical thinking techniques and skills.

promotes lifelong learning


.

is based on local needs, perceptions and conditions.

engages formal, non-formal and informal education.

accommodates the concept of sustainability.

addresses global issues and local priorities.

builds decision-making, social tolerance, environmental

stewardship, an adaptable workforce, and a good quality of life





What Can You Do?



You can install solar panels, use an electric car, ride a bike or

 use other practices that minimize your economic footprint.

Still, these can be costly, often more so than non-sustainable

solutions, Weinstein said. While expense doesn’t rule out

those practices, there are other solutions you can pursue as

well.



You can also focus on pressuring large systems to change.

Weinstein said that SNHU has an Office of Sustainability

because SNHU President Paul LeBlanc and the university’s

Board of Trustees and senior leadership understand that it is

the right thing to do—and, because SNHU’s staff, faculty and

students expressed interest in a university-wide commitment.

Across college campuses, there is a public outcry for change.

92% of college students agreed that their institutions should

incorporate and promote sustainable development, according

to Students Organizing for Sustainability (SOS) International

 





6-Limitations




There are many barriers to achieving sustainability that

must be addressed for a "sustainability transition" to

become possible.  Some barriers arise from nature

 and its complexity. Other barriers are "extrinsic" to

the concept of sustainability. A number of extrinsic

sustainability barriers are related to the dominant

institutional frameworks where market mechanisms

often fail to create public goods. Some approaches

humanity can take to transition to environmental

sustainability include: maintaining ecosystem services,

reducing food waste, promoting dietary shifts towards plant-

based foods, reducing fertility rates and, thus, population growth,

 promoting new green technologies, and adopting renewable

energy sources while phasing out subsidies to fossil fuels.

Global issues are difficult to tackle as they require global

solutions, and existing global organizations (such as

the UN and WTO) are inefficient in enforcing current

global regulations, for example due to the lack of

suitable sanctioning mechanisms.







The empirical results reported herein


should be considered in the light of some


limitations.”





1-Time constraints


Just as researchers have deadlines to turn in their


 class papers, academic researchers also must meet


the deadline for submitting a research manuscript


 to a journal. Therefore, the time available to study


 a research problem and to measure change over


 time is constrained by the deadline of my


“assignment.”



I should have Made sure I choose a research problem


 that I will be able to complete well before the


assignment’s deadline. If time constraints negatively


 impacted my study in any way, acknowledge this


impact by mentioning a need for a future study.





2-Conflicts arising from cultural bias and


other personal issues




Researchers might be biased views due to their


 cultural backgrounds or perspectives of certain


phenomena, and this can affect a study’s legitimacy.


Also, it is possible that researchers will have


 biases toward data and results that only support


their hypotheses or arguments.


In order to avoid these problems, the author(s) of


 a study should examine whether the way the


 problem was stated and the data-gathering


process were carried out appropriately.


I found a difficulty , but I did it .





3-More study:


I suggest additional studies in the future as the subject

 of my research is of a national importance to my great

 country. Leading a multicultural team is very important.


 In conclusion, I provide a brief conclusion that ties each

 of the findings together and provides a narrative bridge

to the discussion section of the your paper. We reached

 to the objectives we set before and the vision we

 dreamed of through implementing our mission,

goals and objectives.
