Welcome
The Swedish International Centre of Education for Sustainable Development (SWEDESD) is a department of Gotland University, Visby, Sweden. The Centre is mainly funded by Sida, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency.
Education for sustainable development (ESD) is uniquely placed to enable learners, their communities and organizations to make sense of their combined social, economic and ecological life-support systems and to act on choices to enhance their own livelihood and well-being, without compromising the livelihood and wellbeing of other people and future generations.
It is SWEDESD's mandate to help developing the capacity of individuals and organizations conducting learning interventions for enhancing sustainable development, to formulate, implement and evaluate relevant, appropriate and effective initiatives, activities and policies.
