增强教育与可持续发展的关联——通过价值观、能力、技能和知识的教育塑造对未来的责任

Increasing the Relevance of Education to Sustainability ——Teaching Values, Competencies, Skills and Knowledge to Shape the Future Responsibility

摘要: 可持续发展是为解决人类社会发展悖论而达成的一个全球共识。为了推动全人类社会走上可持续发展的道路，必须增强教育和可持续发展的关联。教育是实现可持续发展的关键，环境教育则是将可持续发展与教育紧密关联起来的重要关节，并且需要通过环境教育推动涉及教育价值观转变、教育教学方式和方法转变、知识观转变等的全面性的教育改革。这种将教育重新定向到可持续发展方向的教育改革，必须依靠对现有教育体系的机构建设及改革才能实现。

Abstract: Sustainable Development is a global political common view response to resolving the paradox of Human social development. In order to promote the whole Human society to Sustainable Development, it’s highly necessary to increase the relevance of education to Sustainability. Education is the key of Sustainable Development. Environmental Education is the key of the linkage of Education and Sustainability. And it is necessary to use Environmental Education as a tool to promote an education reform in a whole including changing the value of education, teaching style and methods, the value of knowledge, etc. The success of education re-oriented to Sustainability must depend on the institutional construction and reform in today’s education system.
