Sažetak
Numerous interrelated global challenges, such as climate crisis, biodiversity loss, pollution, poverty, inequality and armed conflicts, aggravated by Covid-19 pandemic and the threats of impending ones, call for urgent action, whereby education should be a powerful instrument for achieving the development within planetary boundaries. It is necessary to ensure the access for scientific knowledge, data sharing for facilitating research, democratic decision making and recognizing local knowledge in order to enhance the resilience. In that, the islands and small island states hold a particular place both because of their vulnerability with regard to climate changes and natural catastrophes and also as examples of self- sufficiency and sustainability which they were constrained to practice throughout the history. The author reflects on strategic documents issued by international organizations and associations on education for sustainable development, analyses its principles, and presents good practice.
