contents <p>Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) aims to integrate environmental and social sustainability into education systems worldwide. Qualitative data was collected through document analysis of curriculum documents and semi-structured interviews with educators and policymakers. Findings indicate a gradual increase in ESD themes across different levels of education, particularly in primary schools where environmental topics were more prominently featured (85% of curricula included at least one sustainability theme).

Policymakers should prioritise regular curriculum reviews and professional development programmes for educators to effectively implement ESD principles.</p>
