The Mediterranean Region’s diversity of languages, cultures, beliefs, geo-politics, economies and development needs generates a unique assortment of challenges to sustainable development, that albeit have a domestic origin, their impact influences the whole region at different levels with varying intensities. While Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) has been repeatedly proposed – at national, regional, and global flora – as the panacea to cure these ills, efforts to implement it have not delivered the returns they were expected.
Besides bringing to the fore initiatives that have successfully implemented ESD in non-traditional settings from different Mediterranean countries, this volume aims to critically explore the process by which ESD principles were translated from guidelines to grounded transformative action.
