On 21 September 2021, a Webinar took place about the findings of the Education at a Glance 2021 report, in which Andreas Schleicher, OECD Director for Education and Skills, presented the most important insights.
This conference brought together 88 ministers, 2800 registered participants and another 10,000 people who followed the debates via YouTube.
The main outcome of the conference as expressed in the ESD World Declaration of Berlin - is that education for sustainable development must become a key component throughout all levels of education by 2025. The ecological component of sustainable development must also be more firmly anchored in (school) curricula, of course with an intrinsic link to citizenship education in a global perspective (cf. SDG 4.7, which approaches both aspects in synergy).
