Beschreibungen/Notizen

• International guidelines for environment-related education are studied. The UNESCO-UNEP International Environmental Education Program provides impetus for developing, legitimizing, and institutionalizing environmental education. It is found that there is consistency in the documents, which is analyzed. The views on education, environment, and development do not vary much in the official texts over a 30-year time span. The same recommendations are repeated as a new path for the salvation of humanity. It is shown that there are certain variations and nuances between the texts. The recommendations and guidelines emanating from international organizations are important in the current context of globalization because of the need to legitimize initiatives and find strategic or financial support.
