Abstract
Education for Sustainability is a relatively new educational concept which is receiving increasing attention. This article examines how this concept has evolved from traditional environmental education and looks at some of the important principles that underpin it. It goes on to discuss some of the potential impediments to its effective implementation within our present educational structures, before examining how a reorientation of these structures might be achieved in order to make Education for Sustainability more effective and viable.
