Abstract

Education for sustainable development (ESD) aims to educate the learners to make informed decisions and responsible actions for climate change, economic sustainability, and a peaceful society. This study aims to check the status of ESD in the higher secondary schools of Sindh province in Pakistan. This qualitative study was conducted in the selected public sector schools of two districts of the province during the period of July 2022 to December 2022. This study revealed that the status of ESD in public higher secondary schools of Sindh province is not satisfactory and schools are not providing adequate knowledge and information to students about core concepts of sustainable development. The outcomes of the study indicate the unavailability of ESD content in the syllabus, a lack of awareness of proper pedagogies among teachers and an inadequate learning environment. This study recommends introducing ESD concepts in the school syllabus and training the teachers in higher secondary schools.
