Multi-Stakeholder Approaches to Education for Sustainable Development in Local Communities: Towards Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals in Asia

The idea for this publication first emerged from the ‘10th Asia-Pacific RCE Regional Meeting and Symposium on the Sustainable Development Goals: From Goals to Action’, held from 2 to 4 November 2017 at the India Habitat Centre in New Delhi, India. The case studies presented at the symposium became the basis for this publication.

The cases presented in this publication show how RCEs create solutions that enable sustainable development practices in local communities by utilizing education, innovative learning methods and multi-stakeholder partnerships. Local stakeholders take ownership of the sustainability processes, consistently address the targeted SDGs, and demonstrate RCE contributions to the ESD for 2030 priority action areas – policy, education and training settings, educators, youth and community.
