Rethinking Education for Sustainable Development in a Local Community Context

More about the book

Focusing on the intersection of Education for Sustainable Development and community development, this book explores critical environmental education's role in shaping policy and practice. It highlights the experiences of marginalized individuals, particularly an indigenous Ainu fisherman, to reveal the challenges faced in the absence of formal educational structures. By examining the theoretical foundations and methodologies of critical environmental education, the author proposes a praxis framework that integrates both fields, aiming to empower communities and foster sustainable practices.
