In a statement issued Tuesday, May 25, DepEd stressed the need to raise awareness and action – particularly on on education for sustainable development (ESD).
Last week, Education Secretary Leonor Magtolis Briones also highlighted the vital role of stakeholders at the local and global level in raising awareness and action on ESD during the UNESCO World Conference.
“Learning, including education for sustainable development, is a shared responsibility,” Briones said in her message during the conference.
Briones also underscored the need to “integrate planning and to pull resources and ensure that we are able to connect various learning spaces, formal and informal, physical and virtual and in-person and remote that supports social and active learning and provide access to learning resources that enrich learning.”
