Knowing us & Knowing ESD

What were on our minds when we named this scrapbook “ESD on ESD”? Well, it simply stands for

Enthusiastic Social Defenders on Education for Sustainable Development”
We see ourselves as future teachers with the aim of helping the young generation in developing attitudes, skills & knowledge to make informed decisions for the benefit of themselves and others, now and in the future and to act upon these decisions.

We are focusing on “Social Issues” and therefore, we named ourselves as Social Defenders. Recently many social issues arise capturing the attention of the public. That is why we created this scrapbook to bring up the important social issues and try our best to come up with possible solutions to those problems. We are going to discuss the social issues and solutions base on the elements of sustainable development which consists of:

1) Integrated Decision Making Process,

2) Better Research and Information,

3) Democratic Values,

4) Community Participation,

5) Collaboration,

6) Equity, justice, and share progress,

7) Obligations to future generations,

8) Leadership in all sectors far beyond compliance, and

9) Long term solutions.

We will take turns to update and bring you the most interesting social issues. All readers are welcome to read and reflect on our posts. Let them be negative or positive reviews, we appreciate each reader's thoughtful comments.
