Appeal From UNESCO

"A flower falls, even though we love it; and a weed grows, even though we do not love it." - Dogen Zenji

APPEAL FROM UNESCO

Our good friend Benard Combes from UNESCO has asked for help with UNESCO's work in preparing for the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005-2014).  Bernard would like to get your answers to the 2 following questions:

- How do you say Sustainable Development in your country?  Please send us the words 'sustainable development' in the different languages and dialects of your country.

- Define Sustainable Development in 25 words or less - please write and send us a sentence containing 25 words maximum which summarizes your perception of sustainable development.

Send your comments to Bernard Combes at [email protected].

UNESCO is a member of the World Forum Alliance.  To learn more about UNESCO and the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development, go to http://mail.ccie.com/go/eed/0048.
