The UNECE ESD Forum aspires to serve as a bridge of cooperation and a communication platform on the issues of Education for Sustainable Development, providing insights and examples of how ESD contributes to the integration of sustainability practices into entrepreneurship education. Discussions will explore how to ensure that innovations and entrepreneurship can meaningfully contribute to fostering the conditions for a sustainable future. The forum outcomes will feed into the consultations and discussions in the lead up to the upcoming Summit of the Future.
