School Networks education for sustainability. (SD-37)

At the last UN meeting on education for sustainability, was proposed as the main objective networking as they have been exposed in this courtroom dynamics.

The day was introduced by representatives of the Generalitat of Catalonia, organizers of this room. They established the building blocks to implement a real change in environmental protection. These pillars were approved by the other participants which referred to them during their presentations. Ideas such as political will, technological advancement and cultural change. To accomplish the latter is fundamental environmental education and, therefore, school work.

Behind them, made his speech Rosa Maria Pujol "the jewel in the crown" as presented by their peers in the table. It made clear that talk of Agenda 21 school is talking about change. Transformations based on three ideas: New Ethics, New Thought and New Action.
This concept of New Ethics mean we should stop seeing the world in our hands for seeing us the world, part of it. This requires that we accept the diversity in our schools, get involved in the culture of negotiation, inclusion and not exclusion, of collaboration and interdependence.

The New Thought , stop seeing the world as a picture to see it as a story, for which we have a temporal view, ie keep in mind that to get where we have gone through a series of things and the situation in which we differ, as will be happening other, something that can be worked from any curriculum of Natural Sciences. We also have a vision to scale (micro-macro), a systematic approach that allows us to see the synergies arising from the union of their parts, have a dialogical view, work skills (LOE) and there are actions behind, focus the study on phenomena and processes not in elements and building models. For all of them is essential to work with an open and dynamic curriculum, which aim to provide students with the tools to make decisions and not just simply to transmit knowledge.

Finally, to carry out the transformation is necessary New Action, stop seeing the world passively and actively participate in the change. Necessary changes in institutions, becoming connected institutions and action.

With these three changes we get to make the great transformation going to feel, think and act to feel, think and act.
