| সংক্ষিপ্ত: | In India, curriculum experts have long grappled with issues of social justice, equity, and ecological justice. This article considers how, from 2005, education for sustainable development has been integrated in the curriculum and textbooks, drawing on the legacy of Gandhian pedagogy. It looks at the themes and approaches used in primary environmental studies and mathematics, and shows how it echoes in teacher education. The article concludes with an update on the current situation, with a new curriculum rowing back on these developments. A discussion follows on the contemporary challenges faced when implementing education for sustainable development in India today, and how critical perspectives, responsive to different sociocultural contexts, help interrogate and enrich the international discourse. |
