As envisioned by the UNECE, the future of the ECE region embraces common values such as solidarity, equality and mutual respect between people, countries and generations. Sustainable development, including economic vitality, justice, social cohesion, environmental protection and the sustainable management of natural resources, is at the core of the ECE region’s identity. The vision of the UNECE Strategy for ESD considers education as a prerequisite for achieving sustainable development and “an essential tool for good governance, informed decision-making and the promotion of democracy” (UNECE, 2005, p.1). The ESD Strategy was conceived as a contribution to the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005-2014) and was intended to serve as the foundation for regional DESD implementation.
