Abstract

The purpose of this article is to illustrate the fact that it is a combination of safety and sustainability. For a better understanding of the essence of the subject matter, the general issues forming sustainable development and the objectives of security education as a transmitter between generations are presented. The key factors of education for security arise from sustainable development objectives. The concept of education for security cannot be tantamount to the anticipated reduced curricula in schools. The concept of security must be promoted not only as one of human needs but as an indispensable determinant of development and vice versa. In order to better understand the message of this text, a study has been carried out on safety education programmes at various levels of education in the European Union. The whole consideration has been contextualised on the basis of an analysis of written sources concerning the state's internal security as and when it comes to global security. Taking into account the significant role of security in the proper implementation of the concept of sustainable development gives sense to the implementation of individual sustainable development objectives in relation not only to global but also regional as well as local conditions.

Highlights

Education and the need to discover the new has always been at the heart of the progress of civilization
Many decades of imposing ideological concepts and instilling their legitimacy with the help of the state apparatus in the countries of the Eastern Bloc, and until 1990 in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe mixed in this sphere of influence, it seems justified to adopt some principles of Gestalt or non-directive pedagogy [1] for the sake of education for the security of sustainable development goals
The concept of universal safety and the system it creates is very clear in the literature because it is described as a set of targeted and hierarchical legal norms that create tools for the state apparatus to protect citizens' goods and protect the economy and the interests of the state

Summary

Introduction

Education and the need to discover the new has always been at the heart of the progress of civilization. Creating the security that will be linked to sustainable development objectives requires a broader view of social and environmental issues In this context, the division of security needs proposed by Waldemar Kitler [3] seems important: the need for public safety and order, the need for universal security, the need for health protection and sanitary and epidemiological safety, the need for environmental protection and waste management, the need to protect cultural heritage and national identity, the need for economic security, the need for education and upbringing, the need for national security. Changes in the perception of security needs result from the following factors: states of habit and mentality of citizens, dynamics of introduced social changes, civil liberties, the possibility of personal development and the lack of threat to your development through the provisions of state law, increasing social diversity and the diversity of life choices, standard of living and access to medical and educational services, the possibility of influencing the environment and society,
